I would much rather point at external documentation. We are currently doing that in workflow with a link to github's pull request guidance. When we added the link it contained text about the fork & pull model but it's not there anymore. We could link to https://help.github.com/categories/collaborating-on-projects-using-issues-and-pull-requests/. The fork and pull model is defined in https://help.github.com/articles/about-collaborative-development-models/ The two relevant parts of that category seem to be https://help.github.com/articles/working-with-forks/ and https://help.github.com/articles/proposing-changes-to-a-project-with-pull-requests/. Would linking to those two work? |

Related to #2291. |

I agree nearly everything described in this pull request is the standard Github workflow, so I don't think this repository is the best place to describe this. It would indeed be great if we can link to some external places where contributors can find more information. |
OK to move this document in some other place. Which are the most mismatching aspects in order to improve it? |

Closing and opening an issue for the stale link. |
Add git workflow guidelines to contribute on this repo
With this PR I would like to submit the first version of a new document for revision.
It provides step-by-step instructions for using git with OpenStreetMap Carto and suggests guidelines on how contributors should operate when collaborating through pull requests (PRs) via Git and GitHub.
