+# Contributing to protobuf-dt
+Want to contribute? Great! First, read this page (including the small print at
+the end).
+
+## Before you contribute
+**Before we can use your code, you must sign the
+[Google Individual Contributor License Agreement](https://developers.google.com/open-source/cla/individual?csw=1)
+(CLA), which you can do online.**
+
+The CLA is necessary mainly because you own the copyright to your changes,
+even after your contribution becomes part of our codebase, so we need your
+permission to use and distribute your code. We also need to be sure of
+various other things — for instance that you'll tell us if you know that
+your code infringes on other people's patents. You don't have to sign
+the CLA until after you've submitted your code for review and a member has
+approved it, but you must do it before we can put your code into our codebase.
+
+Before you start working on a larger contribution, you should get in touch
+with us first. Use the issue tracker to explain your idea so we can help and
+possibly guide you.
+
+## Code reviews and other contributions
+**All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review.**
+
+Changes to protobuf-dt must be reviewed before they are accepted, no matter who
+makes the change. A custom git command called git-codereview, discussed below,
+helps manage the code review process through a Google-hosted instance of the
+code review system called Gerrit.
+
+### Set up authentication for code review
+Gerrit uses Google Accounts for authentication. If you don't have a Google
+Account, you can create an account which includes a new Gmail email account or
+create an account associated with your existing email address.
+
+The email address associated with the Google Account you use will be recorded
+in the change log and in the contributors file.
+
+To set up your account in Gerrit, visit
+[protobuf-dt.googlesource.com](https://protobuf-dt.googlesource.com)
+and click on "Generate Password" in the page's top right menu bar.
+
+You will be redirected to the google accounts page to sign in.
+
+Once signed in, you are returned back to
+[protobuf-dt.googlesource.com](https://protobuf-dt.googlesource.com)
+to "Configure Git". Follow the instructions on the page. (If you are on a
+Windows computer, you should instead follow the instructions in the yellow box
+to run the command.)
+
+Your secret authentication token is now in a .gitcookie file and Git is
+configured to use this file.
+
+### Register with Gerrit
+
+Now that you have your authentication token, you need to register your account
+with Gerrit. To do this, visit
+[protobuf-dt-review.googlesource.com/login](https://protobuf-dt-review.googlesource.com/login/).
+You will immediately be redirected to Google Accounts. Sign in using the same
+Google Account you used above. That is all that is required.
+
+## The small print
+Contributions made by corporations are covered by a different agreement than
+the one above, the
+[Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License Agreement](https://cla.developers.google.com/about/google-corporate).
