### Contribution and Project Maintenance

#### Meta Kernel

- CMFA uses the kernel from `android-real` branch under `MetaCubeX/Clash.Meta`, which is a merge of the main `Alpha` branch and `android-open`.
  - If you want to contribute to the kernel, make PRs to `Alpha` branch of the Meta kernel repository.
  - If you want to contribute Android-specific patches to the kernel, make PRs to  `android-open` branch of the Meta kernel repository.

#### Maintenance

- When `MetaCubeX/Clash.Meta` kernel is updated to a new version, the `Update Dependencies` actions in this repo will be triggered automatically.
  - It will pull the new version of the meta kernel, update all the golang dependencies, and create a PR without manual intervention.
  - If there is any compile error in PR, you need to fix it before merging. Alternatively, you may merge the PR directly.
- Manually triggering `Build Pre-Release` actions will compile and publish a `PreRelease` version.
- Manually triggering `Build Release` actions will compile, tag and publish a `Release` version.
  - You must fill the blank `Release Tag` with the tag you want to release in the format of `v1.2.3`.
  - `versionName` and `versionCode` in `build.gradle.kts` will be automatically bumped to the tag you filled above.
