First, you'll want to clone the repo: git clone https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git Then make changes. You can test using "make": make -C Documentation git-merge.html open Documentation/git-merges.html Once you're happy with the patch, it's time to send it out for review. The Git project uses a decentralized review process using email. See https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/SubmittingPatches.html for details about how it works. If you are used to the GitHub pull request process, you may enjoy GitGitGadget, which acts as a sort of bridge. See [1] for instructions. Please do also keep in mind the hints from SubmittingPatches e.g. about how to describe your changes and how to certify your work. Thanks, and looking forward to seeing your contributions, Jonathan [1] https://github.com/gitgitgadget/gitgitgadget/blob/master/README.md#a-bot-to-serve-as-glue-between-github-pull-requests-and-the-git-mailing-list

Those manual pages are generated from documentation sources in the Git project, thus those fixes should be submitted to Git itself, not to the website project. Changes to Git are sent to this mailing list as patches (see Documentation/SubmittingPatches), although see gitgitgadget[1], which acts as a Github pull-request-to-Git-mailing-list gateway, as a possible alternative.

Git Reference Manual enhance
Is there any way to create pull request to git man (https://git-scm.com/docs)? I found there some inconsistencies. For example, almost in all pages are using [no-], but at https://git-scm.com/docs/git-merge each command (with [no-] or without) write separately. There are some same inconsistencies that a easy to fix. So, if I can sent a pull-request for such fix – inform me.
