Subject: [qemu-web PATCH] contribute: ask not to submit merge requests
Date: Fri, 10 Sep 2021 17:29:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210910152933.468368-1-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

Currently, the bug reporting page has a paragraph about not sending patches
on the bug tracker, with a link to the patch submission guidelines.

However, now that the tracker is hosted on Gitlab it is more likely that
prospective contributors will submit a merge request linked to an issue,
rather than attaching a patch to the issue.  Update the language and,
since it is not limited to bug reports, move it to the main contribute
page.
