<p>Hello Frederico,</p>
<p>In order to<b> create new commits</b> you cannot avoid to start
with installing GIT on your computer and getting the Scilab source
files (which includes the documentation). Depending on your OS
using GIT can be a different experience, but using the command
line is not a must. For example under Windows you have
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://gitforwindows.org/">https://gitforwindows.org/</a>. Once you have installed any flavor of
GIT, the remaining instructions are inside this Wiki
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.scilab.org/gerrit">https://wiki.scilab.org/gerrit</a></p>
<p>If all those things are too complicated for you, just give us
(for example me or Samuel) the modified files and we will create
the commit and you will be able to edit/update it directly on
codereview.scilab.org</p>
<p>S.</p>

<ul>
<li>login on the CodeReview portal, with your usual (Bugzilla)
Scilab login and password:<br>

=> Sign in, in the top right</li>
<li>Contribute to an existing commit, just through the web
interface.</li>
</ul>
Creating new commits and managing them is (quite) more
complicated (at least it was, for me).<br>
But many contributions are possible directly with the web
interface, without knowing GIT,<br>
including editing files.<br>

<br>
<font face="Courier New">Would you please give me some extra
hints?<br>
<br>
I'm quite serious about starting to contribute corrections and
improvements to some help pages, the only area where I feel
confident that I can put my two cents for the time being
(besides just detecting bugs).<br>
<br>
I've been able to login, I arrive at this page:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://antispam.utc.fr/proxy/2/c3RlcGhhbmUubW90dGVsZXRAdXRjLmZy/codereview.scilab.org/#/q/status:open"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://codereview.scilab.org/#/q/status:open</a><br>
<br>
There are many open subjects, of course none of them matches the
bug I've filed earlier:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://antispam.utc.fr/proxy/1/c3RlcGhhbmUubW90dGVsZXRAdXRjLmZy/bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16250"
moz-do-not-send="true">http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16250</a><br>
<br>
Anyway, I proceed and open the first one:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://antispam.utc.fr/proxy/2/c3RlcGhhbmUubW90dGVsZXRAdXRjLmZy/codereview.scilab.org/#/c/20723/"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://codereview.scilab.org/#/c/20723/</a><br>
<br>
But now I'm completely at a loss. How do I locate the help page
I want to edit from here?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>
