If we get more experience with weblate in the next month or two, it could be worth adding to the guide. This may be too late for GSoD2022 but adding here in case we have time.
The uses of git covered by the guide (forking git mirror to test contributions, or contributing to the guide itself) do not require people to be familiar with the git commands or to use a particul...

This doesn't...
I applied it to 2024-11-18 r87347. The last change to `src/library/grDevices/src/devQuartz.c` in R-devel was 4 months ago so it is probably fine to test on any version since then. That said, there ...
