Thanks for considering to contribute to FluidSynth. Before implementing
any huge new feature, consider bringing up your ideas on our mailing list:
https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fluid-dev
Contributing can be done by submitting pull requests on Github:
https://help.github.com/articles/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/
Or by submitting patches to the mailing list. Patches should be created with
```

```
So in every case you should be familiar with the basics of git.
