Fixing
The next step after having reported bugs is to fix them. Any one is welcome to come up with a solution for a given bug. As a very first step, you should create a patch file and attach it to the related entry in the bug tracker. This will motivate developers to work on this bug and will also foster discussion on the proposed fix.
Bug fixes should then enter the review cycle. This is achieved using Git and Gerrit and the workflow is illustrated below.
For more information about using Git and Gerrit, please refer to the TYPO3 wiki.
