But will a pull request be accepted?

Some guidance may be useful on pull requests so community members can
anticipate when it will be in their interests to perform the work.

I agree!  Here's a list of steps you can take to make it more likely
that your changes will be accepted.

0. Be willing to go away and learn things by yourself.  The core
development team is very small and very busy and we won't necessarily
have time to closely guide you through using normal development tools in
the normal way.

Having said that, it's worth noting that the core dev team will do our best to find time to help you when you get stuck, and to point you in the direction of helpful and relevant reference materials whenever feasible. We'll never tell you to "RTFM, noob"!
