I went ahead and posted the information below in the Developer's Guide section of the uPortal manual located here: https://wiki.jasig.org/display/UPM40/GitHub for reference

After a few days of working with the uPortal source in GitHub we've come up with a proposed workflow for the project and documented it in the wiki: https://wiki.jasig.org/display/UPC/Git+Workflow

There are a few workflow options, the direct merge option is only applicable to uPortal committers but the Pull Request option is applicable to committers and anyone else that is interested in supplying patches to uPortal via GitHub Pull Requests.

While patches supplied via Jira issues are still a great way to contributed Pull Requests are even better, they allow VERY easy review of the changes and how they merge and it just takes a click from any uPortal committer to perform the merge.

For those still getting to know git (that includes me) this is a great reference: http://git.or.cz/course/svn.html Git really is a bit of a paradigm shift from SVN and while we'll have our bumps for the next few weeks I really think it is going to turn out to be a valuable move for uPortal.

If you have any comments or suggestions on the posted workflow, or tips & tricks for working with git please post them!
