Hello,

I've read
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/WorkingConventions/Git and it
contains following sentence:

"(where <account> is your account on darcs.haskell.org; omit this step
if you don't have one, you can still submit patches via the mailing list
or send a pull request to get your changes in GHC)."

As I would like to provide a patch or two and yet I'm complete git
novice able to just clone and switch branches, I would appreciate if
someone more elaborate on this "or send a pull request to get your
changes in GHC". I guess I shall use github.com for this. If so, then
from what project I shall clone to my github's GHC copy? As I said, I've
never seriously used git before nor github.com so some more writing
about it on the same page would be fantastic to have.

Yes, that sentence was intentionally vague because we haven't settled all the details yet. We definitely intend to accept pull requests via github, and probably via email with git format-patch. You can also just send us a manual pull request with link to your repo and the branch name. We'll document the various ways in due course.

Cheers,
        Simon
