+## Submitting Your Changes
+
+To create and submit a change:
+
+1. Please sign our [Contributor License Agreement (CLA)](#signing-the-cla) before sending pull
+   requests.
+
+2. Create and checkout a new branch off the master branch for your changes:
+
+   ```shell
+   git checkout -b my-fix-branch master
+   ```
+
+3. Create your patch, including appropriate test cases.
+
+4. Commit your changes and create a descriptive commit message (the commit message is used to
+   generate release notes, please check out our [commit message conventions](#commit-message-format)
+   and our commit message presubmit hook `validate-commit-msg.js`):
+
+   ```shell
+   git commit -a
+   ```
+
+5. Push your branch to Github:
+
+   ```shell
+   git push origin my-fix-branch
+   ```
+
+6. In Github, send a pull request to `angular:master`.
+
+That's it! Thank you for your contribution!
+
+When the patch is reviewed and merged, you can safely delete your branch and pull the changes
+from the main (upstream) repository:
+
+```shell
+# Delete the remote branch on Github:
+git push origin :my-fix-branch
+
+# Check out the master branch:
+git checkout master
+
+# Delete the local branch:
+git branch -D my-fix-branch
+
+# Update your master with the latest upstream version:
+git pull --ff upstream master
+```
