Hi, I'm putting a few answers here, but those could go to the document pointed out by Sravan (which by the way could be renamed to CONTRIBUTING.md)

It's just something that is up to the submitter, we shouldn't recommend anything here and let contributors build the workflow they prefer. What needs to be recommended is how we merge and keep a meaningful granularity for commits, not how contributors submit their PRs. > I never use command line git and do everything from Eclipse - but some > recommended to use git CLI. > What typical commands do you have in mind? GitHub really is standard Git when it comes to push/fetch, the only thing to know is that reference to fetch/merge a PR is `pulls/123/head`, so there is no Git fanciness needed and EGit can be used for most operations. The only operation needed is the creation of a pull request and its review, that usually happens via an external tool (eg GitHub website). > Egit support missing or not - not clear.

If anything is missing, it should be reported to EGit. > It is unclear / undocumented how to *properly* refer to bugs in commits > (full url? repo-name/id? just id?). > It is unclear if we should now use dedicated github bug trackers *per > repository* to report bugs, or will be there some higher level bug tracker > for entire platform organization? > I believe that is still to be determined, as we're growing collective experience here. > Once the PR is created, I see that builds somehow triggered in equinox, > but I neither get mails that they are stared nor they are finished. That's an interesting thought. I don't know whether there is some option to allow email notifications for votes.
