[PATCH v3 0/8] docs: recommend using contrib/contacts/git-contacts

["Linus Arver via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

Make git-contacts more prominent in our docs.


Notable changes in v3
=====================

 * Refer to GitGitGadget via a link to MyFirstContribution (instead of
   sending readers to GGG's homepage directly)
 * Soften the advice for using git-contacts


Notable changes in v2
=====================

 * Improve existing mention of git-contacts in SubmittingPatches (instead of
   adding a separate, entirely new paragraph)
 * Add example usage of integrating git-contacts with git-send-email with
   the latter's --cc-cmd flag.
 * Various smaller fixes to SubmittingPatches

Linus Arver (8):
  MyFirstContribution: mention contrib/contacts/git-contacts
  SubmittingPatches: make 'git contacts' grep-friendly
  SubmittingPatches: mention GitGitGadget
  SubmittingPatches: quote commands
  SubmittingPatches: discuss reviewers first
  SubmittingPatches: dedupe discussion of security patches
  SubmittingPatches: add heading for format-patch and send-email
  SubmittingPatches: demonstrate using git-contacts with git-send-email
