I think that the git workflow page is probably a good place to |
| 15 |
consolidate developer-focused (or serious-contributor-focused) |
| 16 |
information. I don't think it is a great place to point outside |
| 17 |
contributors. |

An external contribution has a few parts: |
| 20 |
1. External contributor submits contribution. |
| 21 |
2. Somebody makes sure it is good. |
| 22 |
3. The contribution makes it into a repository official branch. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Part 3 and possibly part 2 might belong on that git workflow page. I |
| 25 |
think part 1 really needs to be on a "how to contribute" page that is |
| 26 |
really focused on outsiders. |
| 27 |
|

Of course, having an overall git workflow that is inclusive of both |
| 29 |
internal and external contributions where it comes to the actual |
| 30 |
Gentoo dev doing the commits seems like a good idea. |
