Just give a link to https://guides.github.com/introduction/flow/ instead of describing how to use git and github.

Not everyone will spend time reading what they need just to share their little solution with the world. Therefore, there should be specific instructions here. Link also can be provided, but for curious

These are obvious things. One cannot contribute (one can fork and do what he wants in his own fork, but on the first PR sent without following the flow a PR its author will usually be asked either to follow the flow or to GTFO) on GitHub (and GitLab, and BitBucket) without knowing them. We can expect everyone on GitHub already knowing the flow.

Why then reference to https://guides.github.com/introduction/flow/ needed? That sentence here just for glue and to justify the need for actions below.

Would be fine to remove that part completely.

This PR adds two separate things: proxy-related info and git workflow-related info.

  • For proxy-related info, I agree that it's good to have, although probably it will need heavy editing for grammar and style. We can always do it later.

  • For git workflow-related info, it's controversal and needs more discussion. I'll add more questions to the text later.

For now, I propose to split this in two and merge in the proxy part. @Mingun, can I ask you to do an extra PR with that, and remove it from this one?

IMHO unneeded.

@Mingun I think this info is very useful for new contributors, especially coming by Hackctoberfest. However, I think the best strategy would be to write a tutorial on contributing to Kaitai on https://dev.to and then we can just reference it here. It may then reach a much more people than being stuck in the docs, which are mostly read by experienced developers.

Hacktoberfest

Is IMHO just a honeypot to collect high-quality personal data for a certain slice of the society at a cost of a T-shirt. It is very weakly related to stimulating people to contribute to open-source - if the contributions are motivated mostly by getting a T-shirt, they are usually of very low quality.

@KOLANICH hey, I've just got a Hacktoberfest T-shirt few days ago with handy stickers. Sold my cookies cheap. :D
