[CMake] Contributing to CMake

[David Golub]

Thank you for your prompt reply.  To start, I filed a bug report containing
a patch to add a minor new feature.  It's #13085.

Hi David, 

This is great :)

If you created some patch that are fixing bugs, the best is to create an
entry on the tracker,  attach the patch to it. More details here [1]. 

Depending on what you want to contribute (some feature for example - see
[3]), you may also want to discuss it first on the list. For example to make
sure you are not working on something that already being addressed by
somebody else. 

Reading [2] and [4] may also be helpful.

much.
