Niels de Vos 6baa79b173 doc: describe how to contribute when a GitHub Pull-Request is made
Every now and then new contributors create a GitHub Pull-Request. We do
not use those for accepting changes, and almost never check for new PRs.
Redirecting contributors can be done automatically, just like we do when
users create a GitHub Issue.

Note that the bulk of the description comes from gluster-block. Just
like most Gerrit maintained projects, it uses 'git review' and not a
custom ./rfc.sh. New contributors that are familiar with Gerrit, will
prefer the 'git review' approach over ./rfc.sh (which we want to
deprecate or at least have it use 'git review' too).

Many thanks for your interest in improving GlusterFS!
GlusterFS does not use GitHub Pull-Requests. Instead, changes are reviewed
on the Gerrit instance of the Gluster Community at https://review.gluster.org
In order to send your changes for review, follow these steps:
1. login on https://review.gluster.org with your GitHub account
2. add a public ssh-key to your profile on https://review.gluster.org/#/settings/ssh-keys
3. add the Gerrit remote to your locally cloned git repository
$ git remote add gerrit ssh://$USER@review.gluster.org/glusterfs.git
4. configure the commit hooks
$ git review --setup
5. post your changes to Gerrit
$ git review
You may need to install the 'git-review' package if 'git review' is not
available. Note that the hooks for the repository make sure to add a ChangeId
label in the commit messages. Gerrit uses the ChangeId to track single patches
and its updated versions.
