You can fully replace functions with your implementations, or merely head- or tail-patch the original implementations to add functionality and/or work around bugs. -"Overriding" means you can extend existing functions by head-patching or tail-patching them or you can wholly replace their implementation by not calling the function's original code.

After making your changes please re-run `rake` to ensure it compiles cleanly and the tests pass. Then submit your Pull Request. ## Version History |
