Updating the contribution guide address a few process changes that were introduced in 2024: - The "community" repo should be used as a fallback repository for bug reports or feature requests. - Make explicit that code changes should merge to the `main` branch first. We have always used the trunk-based approach for development - it wasn't until SHIP-0038 was adopted that we actually had release branches to maintain [1]. - Provide specific instructions on how to add the DCO sign-off footer to commit messages. - Add link on how to submit a pull request on GitHub. This may not be intuitive, especially for non-technical contributors.

cc @qu1queee @SaschaSchwarze0 - a new contributor asked me which branch code changes to merge to, since we now have release branches in our main repos. |
