MyFirstContribution: mention contrib/contacts/git-contacts

2024-04-18T21:55:09Z

Although we've had this script since 4d06402b1b (contrib: add git-contacts helper, 2013-07-21), we don't mention it in our introductory docs. Do so now. Helped-by: Junio C Hamano Signed-off-by: Linus Arver Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Include gettext.h in MyFirstContribution tutorial

2023-10-28T00:02:06Z

The tutorial in Documentation/MyFirstContribution.txt has steps to print some text using the "_" function. However, this leads to compiler errors when running "make" since "gettext.h" is not #included. Update docs with a note to #include "gettext.h" in "builtin/psuh.c".

MyFirstContribution: refrain from self-iterating too much

Finding mistakes in and improving your own patches is a good idea, but doing so too quickly is being inconsiderate to reviewers who have just seen the initial iteration and taking their time to review it. Encourage new developers to perform such a self review before they send out their patches, not after. After sending a patch that they immediately found mistakes in, they are welcome to comment on them, mentioning what and how they plan to improve them in an updated version, before sending out their updates.
