Sample command line workflow with git and gerrit

[Joerg Mayer <jmayer () loplof de>]

Hello,

I've just documented the workflow I used to update the NEWS file.
Please let me know what I missed and if you have ideas for improvement.

Thanks

jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/git(master)> git branch newsupdate
jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/git(master)> git checkout newsupdate
Switched to branch 'newsupdate'
jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/git(newsupdate)> rm NEWS
==> In another window: Change NEWS file
jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/build/qt-gtk3> make release_notes
Generating /home/jmayer/work/wireshark/git/NEWS
Built target release_notes
==> Back to original window:
jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/git(newsupdate)> git status
[...]
#       modified:   NEWS
[...]
jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/git(newsupdate)> git commit -a
[newsupdate c159b39] As long as the NEWS file is part of the source distribution it really needs to be updated every 
time the file docbook/release-notes.asciidoc get changed.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
