[ITK] [ITK-users] Procedure for Submitting Patches to Remote Modules/Third Party Libraries

[Matt McCormick]

Hi Davis,

Thanks for contributing fixes to these projects!

For GDCM, if you make a change to the source code in the ITK tree, it
will give instructions on how to submit the patch upstream [1].

For the remote module, please create a pull request on the
InsightSoftwareConsortium GitHub repository.  In the pull request,
make a comment that pings authors in the history of the repository,
like "please review @thewtex" so that reviewers are notified of the
change. After the change has been made, the Remote Module in ITK can
be updated by changing the sha in Modules/Remote/*.remote.cmake.

Thanks,
Matt
