 ==== Pull requests ====
-New add-ons or updates may be submitted directly to the [[Official add-on repository]] on Github as pull requests. We encourage add-on developers to use this method as the process is easier for both parties involved. Of course this requires some initial git knowledge and we strongly suggest to read up on this subject before using this method. To reduce size we have split up the git repositories in several locations. Please visit [[Official add-on repository]] to see where they are. Each contains a small readme with a short description of it's contents as well as a link to a short explanation on how to submit using git command line. There are also git tools available that have a graphic interface and the steps above should be done in a similar way. Please consult the manual of those programs.
