Documentation on best practises for contributing

Documentation for contributions to RUBIX
For the first public release we should probably have a little section that describes the best practises in software development and how we envision people to contribute to RUBIX. I.e. we should describe the workflow we adopted. First write an issue, then create branch and implement the feature, write tests and ask for pull request. This might help new developers to adopt to our workflow.

Of course, this is not really an urgent item and needs to be in place only for public release.

@MaHaWo @nashmit could you provide some boiler plate text for how you set up the GitHub project and what the SSC recommends in this case?

we can of course look into it, but probably only after current sprint. Linking resources for future reference:

• github contribution guidelines documentation: has some examples, says how to generally do it
• example from one of our projects
