The preferred entry point for new contributors is the mailing list.
Please subscribe and post to the `CMake Developers List`_ to offer
contributions.  Regular and productive contributors may be invited
to gain direct push access.

Please base all new work on the ``master`` branch.  Then use
``git format-patch`` to produce patches suitable to post to
the mailing list.
