hello @all,<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
for unexperienced users contributing seems to have more hurdles than expected,<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
it starts with GitLab vs. GitHub, https vs. ssh, read only mirrors and so on, and<br/>
doesn&#39;t stop when gitlab proposes a &#39;GDK&#39; on a 404 page.<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-development-kit/blob/master/README.md<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
can someone provide a start from scratch &#39;newbie-level&#39; howto for the basic steps<br/>
to provide merge proposals for gnumeric?<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
this:<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/blob/master/doc/development/contributing/merge_request_workflow.md#commit-messages-guidelines<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
is an nice try, obviously written by someone far far away from a new users perspective,<br/>
and leaded me to a cloned gnumeric in my own &#39;namespace&#39; where i can fork and then<br/>
create merge requests into my &#39;own&#39; master which doesn&#39;t compile reg. space or<br/>
authorization problems ... ,<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
Waste of time and pointless<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
an attempt to &#39;push&#39; from a local clone ended in<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
remote: ========================================================================<br/>
remote:<br/>
remote: You are not allowed to push code to this project.<br/>
remote:<br/>
remote: ========================================================================<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
any help greatly appreciated ...</div>
</div>
&nbsp;<br/>
Best Regards,<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>

P.S. i know i can mail proposals to MW, but had the idea to relieve him from always having to copy or retype ...</div></div></body></html>
