+
+There are several ways to setup Git for committers and contributors.
Contributors can safely setup Git any way they
+choose but committers should take extra care since they can push new
commits to the master at Apache and various
+policies there make backing out mistakes problematic. Therefore all but
very small changes should go through a PR,
+even for committers. To keep the commit history clean take note of the use
of `--squash` below when merging into
+`apache/master`.
+
+## Git setup for Committers
+
+This describes setup for one local repo and two remotes. It allows you to
push the code on your machine to either your
+GitHub repo or to Git at Apache (i.e. git-wip-us.apache.org). You will
want to fork GitHub's apache/opennlp to your own
+account on GitHub, this will enable Pull Requests of your own. Cloning
this fork locally will set up "origin" to point
+to your remote fork on GitHub as the default remote. So if you perform
"git push origin master" it will go to GitHub.
+
+To attach to the apache Git repo do the following:
+
+ git remote add apache
https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/opennlp.git
+
+To check your remote setup:
+
+ git remote -v
+
+You should see something like this:
+
+ origin https://github.com/your-github-id/opennlp.git (fetch)
+ origin https://github.com/your-github-id/opennlp.git (push)
+ apache https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/opennlp.git (fetch)
+ apache https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/opennlp.git (push)
+
+Now if you want to experiment with a branch, this by default points to
your GitHub account because "origin" is default.
+You can work as you normally do using just GitHub, until you are ready to
merge with the Apache remote repository.
+Some conventions will integrate with Apache JIRA ticket numbers.
+
+ git checkout -b opennlp-xxxx #xxxx typically is a JIRA ticket number
+ #do some work on the branch
+ git commit -a -m "doing some work"
+ git push origin opennlp-xxxx # notice pushing to **origin** not
**apache**
+
+Once you are ready to commit to the Apache remote you can merge and push
them directly, or better yet create a
+pull request (PR).
+
+## How to create a PR (committers)
+
+Push your branch to GitHub:
+
+ git checkout opennlp-xxxx
+ git push origin opennlp-xxxx
+
+Go to your opennlp-xxxx branch on GitHub. Since you forked it from
GitHub's apache/opennlp it will default any PR to
+go to apache/master.
+
+* Click the green "Compare, review, and create pull request" button.
+* You can edit the _to_ and _from_ for the PR if it is not correct. The
"base fork" should be apache/opennlp unless
+you are collaborating separately with one of the committers on the list.
The "base" will be master. Do not submit a
+PR to one of the other branches unless you know what you are doing. The
"head fork" will be your forked repo and the
+"compare" will be your opennlp-xxxx branch.
+* Click the "Create pull request" button and name the request
"OPENNLP-XXXX" (uppercase). This will connect the
+comments of the PR to the mailing list and JIRA comments.
+* From now on the PR lives on GitHub's apache/opennlp. You can use the
commenting UI there.
+* If you are looking for a review or sharing with someone else say so in
the comments but do not worry about
+automated merging of your PR -- you will have to do that later. The PR is
tied to your branch so you can respond to
+comments, fix code, and commit from your local repository. They will
appear on the PR page and be mirrored to JIRA

> Listing things like proper way to commit (e.g. include JIRA issue whenever
> possible in the commit message), how to handle and merge pull requests (e.g.
> empty commits, merge with fast-forward, etc), and so it goes.
