We also have the developer guide ([1] and friends). Ideally this

be a consensus as to where that is (wiki, README, developer guide).

Yeah, but I mean even for things like git/gerrit tips and full workflow.

For example:
- using/getting the commit-msg hook (and needing to use it) for Change-IDs
- to use '--amend' and leaving the Change-ID alone when submitting an update of your submit
- avoiding merging local branches because a merge commit won't have the change-id and can't/shouldn't be sent up to 
gerrit
- using the pre-commit hook to catch whitespace errors
- squashing commits into one commit to be gerrit'ed
- how to upload/gerrit backport commits

Some of those things are on various pages in various places in wiki/code/docs, but not one place afaik.

I'm all for consolidating the above information - we just need to
decide which of the many places to consolidate *to*. We've been
playing musical chairs every few months moving things around from A to
B, B to C, and C to A, but never actually getting anywhere.
