+This guide briefly covers using **git-r** inside the
+r-dev-env container to develop, build, and push changes
+to R source.
+
+#### 1. Update Your Local Source
+
+- Open a terminal in the container.
+- Clone the R SVN mirror repository if you haven’t already:
+
+    ```bash
+    git clone https://github.com/r-devel/r-svn.git /workspaces/r-dev-env/r-source
+    ```
+
+- Navigate to your cloned R SVN mirror repository:
+
+    ```bash
+    cd /workspaces/r-dev-env/r-source
+    ```
+
+- Fetch the latest commits:
+
+    ```bash
+    git fetch origin
+    ```
+
+- Synchronize the internal SVN metadata used by R’s build system:
+
+    ```bash
+    git r svn-revision
+    ```
+
+#### 2. Build R from Source
+
+- Use `git-r` commands to configure, build, and install R:
+
+    ```bash
+    git r configure --enable-R-shlib --enable-memory-profiling --without-recommended-packages
+    git r build
+    git r install
+    ```
+
+- To include recommended packages:
+
+    ```bash
+    git r pull-recommended
+    git r build-recommended
+    ```
+
+#### 3. Make Your Code Changes
+
+- Make edits or additions within the source tree (`src/`, `R/`, etc.).
+ For example:
+
+    ```bash
+    echo "// Fix for bug 12345" >> src/main/arithmetic.c
+    ```
+
+- Commit your changes locally to track them with Git:
+
+    ```bash
+    git add src/main/arithmetic.c
+    git commit -m "Fix arithmetic bug (12345)"
+    ```
+
+#### 4. Push Your Changes to Your Fork of r-svn
+
+- Add your personal fork as a remote (replace YOUR-USERNAME):
+
+    ```bash
+    git remote add myfork https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/r-svn.git
+    ```
+
+- Create a feature branch based on `main`, the branch name used here is for reference:
+
+    ```bash
+    git checkout -b feature/12345-arithmetic-fix
+    ```
+
+- Push your branch to your fork:
+
+    ```bash
+    git push myfork feature/12345-arithmetic-fix
+    ```
+
+- Create a pull request on GitHub to propose your changes to the
+official repository. You can initiate the PR by visiting the URL
+below (replace YOUR-USERNAME and branch name accordingly):
+
+    ```bash
+    https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/r-svn/pull/new/feature/12345-arithmetic-fix
+    ```
+
+#### 5. Submit Your Patch to R’s Bugzilla
+
+- Use `git-r` to generate an SVN-compatible patch file for Bugzilla submission:
+
+    ```bash
+    git r svn-diff > ../patches/12345-arithmetic-fix.diff
+    ```
+
+- Upload this patch file to [R’s Bugzilla](https://bugs.r-project.org/) under
+ the corresponding bug report.
