This also bumps the stable nixpkgs to 20.09 as of 2020-11-21, because there is some breakage in the git build related to the netrc credentials helper which someone has taken care of in nixpkgs. The stable channel is not used for anything other than git, so this should be fine. Change-Id: I3575a19dab09e1e9556cf8231d717de9890484fb

## Contributing to Git
|
|
|
|
Thanks for taking the time to contribute to Git! Please be advised that the
|
|
Git community does not use github.com for their contributions. Instead, we use
|
|
a mailing list (git@vger.kernel.org) for code submissions, code
|
|
reviews, and bug reports.
|
|
|
|
Nevertheless, you can use [GitGitGadget](https://gitgitgadget.github.io/) to
|
|
conveniently send your Pull Requests commits to our mailing list.
|
|
|
|
Please read ["A note from the maintainer"](https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/plain/MaintNotes?h=todo)
|
|
to learn how the Git project is managed, and how you can work with it.
|
|
In addition, we highly recommend you to read [our submission guidelines](../Documentation/SubmittingPatches).
|
|
|
|
If you prefer video, then [this talk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7i_qQW__q4&feature=youtu.be&t=6m4s)
|
|
might be useful to you as the presenter walks you through the contribution
|
|
process by example.
|
|
|
|
Or, you can follow the ["My First Contribution"](https://git-scm.com/docs/MyFirstContribution)
|
|
tutorial for another example of the contribution process.
|
|
|
|
Your friendly Git community!
