How To Contribute

Contributing to the Book

If you would like to contribute to the Git Community Book, first check out the source.

$ git clone git://github.com/schacon/gitscm git-book
$ cd git-book
$ git checkout -b book origin/book

Then modify the markdown files with your improvements, commit them and either send me a patch (schacon at gmail.com), or push the changes into a fork of the repo and send me a pull request.

Contributing to the Website

If you would like to contribute to the git-scm.com website, checkout the same repo, but a different branch:

$ git clone git://github.com/schacon/gitscm git-website
$ cd git-website
$ git checkout -b website origin/master

It is a Rails app that is basically just doing full-page caching everywhere, so it’s not super-Railsy.
