+Our project is open source, and patches are always welcome!
+You can send patches by using:
 
-    cd <project>
-    <make edits>
-    git add -A
-    git commit -m "commit message"
-    git push ssh://<username>@gerrit.omnirom.org:29418/<project> HEAD:refs/for/<branch>
+Pull request, right here on git.
 
-Register at gerrit.omnirom.org and use the username that you registered there in the above command
+Contact me on irc, Network: freenode, Channel: #twrp
 
-Commit your patches in a single commit. Squash multiple commit using this command: git rebase -i HEAD~<# of commits>
+## Maintaining Authorship ##
+----------------------
+Mainting authorship is a very important aspect of working with Open Source code. If you wish to submit a patch/fix
+from anywhere else (another ROM, project, etc.), it is imperative that you maintain the ownership of the person whose
+work you're seeking to include. Doing so will ensure that credit is given where it is deserved, and the [prinicples of open source](http://opensource.org/docs/osd)
+are upheld. Your contribution to the project will still be recognized as you will forever be listed as the committer.
 
-If you are going to make extra additions, just repeat steps (Don't start a new patch), but instead of git commit -m
-use git commit --amend. Gerrit will recognize it as a new patchset.
+If you manually cherry pick a patch/fix then you will need to add the original author prior to pushing to our [gerrit](https://gerrit.omnirom.org).
+This is a very easy task to perform, and is usually done after you commit a patch/fix locally. This is accomplished
+after you type in `git commit -a` , type in the commit message and save. You would then do the following:
 
-To view the status of your and others patches, visit [OMNI ROM Code Review](https://gerrit.omnirom.org)
+```bash
+git commit --amend --author "Author <email@address.com>"
+```
 
+So it should look like this once you get all of the author's information
 
-Getting Started
+```bash
+git commit --amend --author "Spencer McGillicuddy <spencer.the.bestest@gmail.com>"
+```
+
+Alternatively, adding as part of the original `git commit` message is preferred and done like the following:
+
+```bash
+git commit --author="Author <email@address.com>" -m "[commit message]"
+```
+
+This saves time, and when part of your normal routine, prevents the infamous "ermahgerd I forgot to add authorship -
+let me fix it because I was found out!" message.
