+[b]Git pour les non développeurs[/b]
+
+Bon vous traduivez ou contribuez à un thème et chaque fois que vous faites un pull request, vous devez parler avec un des développeurs avant que vos changements soient pris en compte.
+
+Vous devez trouver un petit tutorial pour vous aider à maintenair les choses synchronisé. C'est trés facile
+
+
+
+After you've created a fork of the repo (just click "fork" at github), you need to clone your own copy.
+
+For the sake of examples, we'll assume you're working on a theme called redexample (which does not exist).
+
+[code]git clone https://github.com/username/red.git[/code]
+
+Once you've done that, cd into the directory, and add an upstream.
+
+[code]
+cd red
+git remote add upstream https://github.com/redmatrix/redmatrix
+[/code]
+
+From now on, you can pull upstream changes with the command
+[code]git fetch upstream[/code]
+
+Before your changes can be merged automatically, you will often need to merge upstream changes.
+
+[code]
+git merge upstream/master
+[/code]
+
+You should always merge upstream before pushing any changes, and [i]must[/i] merge upstream with any pull requests to make them automatically mergeable.
+
+99% of the time, this will all go well.  The only time it won't is if somebody else has been editing the same files as you - and often, only if they have been editing the same lines of the same files.  If that happens, that would be a good time to request help until you get the hang of handling your own merge conflicts.
+
+Then you just need to add your changes [code]git add view/theme/redexample/[/code]
+
+This will add all the files in view/theme/redexample and any subdirectories.  If your particular files are mixed throughout the code, you should add one at a time.  Try not to do git add -a, as this will add everything, including temporary files (we mostly, but not always catch those with a .gitignore) and any local changes you have, but did not intend to commit.
+
+Once you have added all the files you have changed, you need to commit them.  [code]git commit[/code]
+
+This will open up an editor where you can describe the changes you have made.  Save this file, and exit the editor.
+
+Finally, push the changes to your own git
+[code]git push[/code]
+
+And that's it, your repo is up to date!
+
+All you need to do now is actually create the pull request.  There are two ways to do this.
+
+The easy way, if you're using Github is to simply click the green button at the top of your own copy of the repository, enter a description of the changes, and click 'create pull request'.  The
+main repository, themes, and addons all have their main branch at Github, so this method can be used most of the time.
+
+Most people can stop here.
+
+Some projects in the extended RedMatrix ecosphere have no Github presence, to pull request these is a bit different - you'll have to create your pull request manually.  Fortunately, this isn't
+much harder.
+
+[code]git request-pull -p <start> <url>[/code]
+
+Start is the name of a commit to start at.  This must exist upstream.  Normally, you just want master.
+
+URL is the URL of [i]your[/i] repo.
+
+One can also specify <end>.  This defaults to HEAD.
+
+Example:
+[code]
+git request-pull master https://example.com/project
+[/code]
+
+And simply send the output to the project maintainer.
