Hi Neil, It's either that or an email (which is what the 'traditional' way is). The reason for requiring this step is that ASF mandates that contributors are added to the project manually, to prevent spambots from being able to assign tickets to themselves.
So just to clarify, one can either chose to send an email and ask to be added to project contributors group in JIRA (no changes here), or they can instead submit a PR to contributors.yaml file (just specifying the email and JIRA handle should be sufficient) which will result in the same thing. We will update contribution guidelines to make this explict. Artem.
