It is quite simple: git send-email. It is used by community projects that don't use github or gitlab pull requests but a mailing list instead: you create a patch and send it to the maintainer of the subsystem. The most typical example is the Linux Kernel. I will use the Linux Kernel codebase as the example in this post :vv (Oh, I don't have any merged patch yet, but I will work towards one in the near future :vv)</p>
