Also the Contributor Guide makes mention of submitting a patch file. > > Supplying a contribution > There are currently two paths from which we review and accept > contributions, ASF JIRA and GitHub Pull Requests (PRs), regardless of > whether your contribution is source code or documentation (note that > submitting your contribution through a pull request via GitHub is the > preferred option as it makes the reviews much easier).
Supplying a contribution through patch and JIRA issue > Assuming you are still on the branch you want to make a patch from > (NIFI-359) and that you've just committed the change and it is a single > commit then you can run the following to generate a patch file `git format-patch nifi-359~1 -o </desired/path/for/patch>/nifi-359.patch` Now you can go to JIRA for ticket NIFI-359 and select 'more -> attach > files' and upload the patch file. Then select 'Submit Patch'. In practice I have experienced this is not the way to submit changes hence this part should be removed from the Contributor Guide.
