I've written this up as https://reviews.freebsd.org/D38382 which I'm open
to feedback on. Especially other areas of the docs that need to be fixed to
be consistent.

&gt; I&#39;d like to put some parameters around the pull requests on github. To that<br>
&gt; end, I&#39;d like us to consider the following policy:<br>
<br>
This seems like a good start.<br>
<br>
&gt; Pull requests shouldn&#39;t expand in scope in response to feedback: If the<br>
&gt; feedback suggests a new series of changes, please create a new pull<br>
&gt; requests.<br>
<br>
I think I&#39;d prefer: &quot;Pull requests shouldn&#39;t expand in scope once<br>
created:...&quot;.<br>
<br>
Some direction on using rebase and forced push when addressing feedback is<br>
probably also in order.  If I&#39;m taking a few minutes to look at a PR that<br>
