Jan,

Sorry it's taken so long - I got held up as you might have seen.

I'm getting ready to make the first set of amendments now, but I'm still a bit 
confused about the workflow. Do I update the help file on the Git repository 
(using push) directly, or do I use gerrit? In the latter case I assume that I 
don't need Git except for my own purposes.

I've not yet tried to get onto gerrit, so I'll try to do that tomorrow (unless 
something of higher priority arrives). You have been warned....

Best regards,

Peter

Cool, thanks! :-)

I see.  gerrit is (just) a review system; in other words, a system that 
allows everybody to have write access - you can commit and push your 
changes (to gerrit), where somebody with the appropriate rights will 
read your change, and either comment on that (so that you know what to 
fix), or will merge it to the main git. 

You need to do a bit of a setup: 

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/gerrit/setup

but then for your work, you'll push very similarly as with the normal 
git.

Better if you have an IRC client, but if not, you can join via web too: 

https://webchat.freenode.net/

Join the #libreoffice-dev channel, I'm sure you'll find many people who 
will be able to help you with the gerrit setup, if I'm not around or not 
responding from some reason (I'm "kendy" there). 

All the best, 
Kendy
