Using your legal name is not required. For reasons why we have this policy, read this article. You can use an assumed name, or your company name (if you have a company), if you want. Also, read this article. Unfortunately, git appears to be stuck with these problems, when an author changes their name, and we don't have a concrete answer to it. As far as we know, publishing your legal name isn't even required for copyright purposes; in fact, "pen names" are common in literature. You can also submit patches without a name, if you want (instructions are detailed on this page).
When submitting any kind of documentation, try not to use the terms him/her, she/he, his/her, or anything that is gender biased. Use their, they, them, those people, that person, and so on. You are making a huge difference.

Small technical note: libreboot is working to convert all documentation to texinfo, where it is currently written in HTML, directly. Therefore, please submit any new documentation under this format, during the transition period.
Information about maintainers to notify, when submitting patches, can be found on the project maintainers page. Generally speaking, libreboot uses a very informal review method for patches. Most patches are merged, unless they obviously have problems. We recommend submitting them to the libreboot development mailing list, linked to from the home page. There is also an IRC channel.
Libreboot development is facilitated by git, a distributed version control system that is in wide use today. Git provides many practical benefits, making collective development of software very easy.

NOTE: you don't have to use your legal name. We don't care what name you use. If you want to be anonymous (no name), you could use Libreboot Contributor as your name, and noname@libreboot.org as the email address.

If you wish to use a different author name for the commit command, add --author="Author's Name <author's email address>" at the end. This could be an assumed name, or it could be because you are submitting a patch on someone else's behalf. If you want to be anonymous (no name), you could use Libreboot Contributor as your name, and noname@libreboot.org as the email address.
