Using 'git > send-email' helps sending properly formatted patches. My bad, I copy and paste. I'm a bit ashamed to say it, but I didn't know about the command 'git am', but never too late to know about it, so thanks. > I usually explain the problem first, and then the solution. Yes, if you don't mind, I take your explanation and put it inside the commit because it sounds really good to me. So, if I had to add a special tag for this alert me. > A set of scripts and instructions to use VS Code on Git's codebase is > available in `contrib/vscode/README.md` ?. Indeed, it's a bit confused the way I said it. So, I change the text to something more accurate. > I'm reluctant to adding general programming tips in a Git-specific > document. Perhaps shorten it to eg. just "Using the integrated debugger > can be particularly helpful to understand how Git works internally"? I know, it can be strange to talk about programming tips, but I also think that, it can be a good idea if it could help a beginer. And I also think that, in MyFirstContribution it's the right place to talk about it, because it might be the first reading of newcomers. But, maybe create another file to talk about things like this with a mention of this file in MyFirstContribution can be good too. > Why not, but I don't think it's necessary here.

Thanks for your help and for taking your time to review.
