Mark et al -
I want to add to the docs, but before I do that, I figured I'd start with
something small and make sure I'm following the steps correctly... I'm
hoping you can check my work and answer my question about the final step...

Per what you told Ben, I went into the /nifi-docs directory and then into
the asciidoc directory and simply copy-edited the overview.adoc file.
Really minor stuff... added a few commas, fixed a few typos... nothing
major. It's already very well written and clear.

I saved the file and did 'mvn install' from the nifi-docs directory. Then,
I looked at the files in the target/generated-docs directory. It appeared
to update the overview.html file with my changes.

Then, I followed these steps that you gave Ben...

>From the incubator-nifi directory (I hope that's correct...)

   - git add nifi-docs
   - git commit -m "updated docs"

//At this point, it told me:
On branch develop
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/develop'.

nothing to commit, working directory clean
//I'm not sure if that's what I should expect or if it means I did
something wrong...

I went ahead and did the next step:

   - git format-patch origin/develop

Per what you told Ben - that will create a patch, and I can attach the
patch to the JIRA ticket. However, I become clue-free at this point...
Where would it have created the patch and what file would I attach?

I see that these were the most recent things updated, so I'm wondering if I
want to attach one of the snapshots?

nifi-docs-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-resources.zip
nifi-docs-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

I'm sure this is probably something obvious, but I'm missing it. Thanks for
bearing with me! :-)

When I get the hang of this, I plan to help with something real. What are
you using to customize your screenshots? I want to make sure that anything
I add is in keeping with the style you are using. Thanks.
