 All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review. We
 use [Gerrit](https://hafnium-review.googlesource.com) for this purpose.
 
+To submit a change:
+
+1.  Create an account in the
+    [Gerrit UI](https://hafnium-review.googlesource.com).
+2.  Follow the [getting started](docs/GettingStarted.md) instructions to clone
+    the Hafnium repositories and set up the necessary commit hook.
+3.  Make your change.
+4.  Run our autoformatter with `make format`.
+5.  Commit as usual. If you make a change in a submodule you will also need to
+    commit a change in the main repository to update the submodule version.
+6.  Run the [tests](docs/Testing.md) and other presubmit checks with
+    `kokoro/ubuntu/build.sh`, ensure they all pass.
+7.  Upload the change to Gerrit with `git push origin HEAD:refs/for/master`. If
+    you have changed submodules then you'll need to push them as well.
+8.  If you changed submodules, then add a matching 'topic' from the Gerrit UI
+    for all your changes (submodules and the main repository) so that they can
+    be reviewed and submitted together.
+9.  Wait 10-15 minutes for our presubmit tests to run, and make sure a 'Kokoro
+    +1' comment shows up in Gerrit indicating that they have passed. If not,
+    follow the links to find the errors, fix them and try again.
+10. From the Gerrit UI add one or more reviewers. Looking at who has modified
+    the same files frequently recently is usually a good way to pick a reviewer,
+    but if you're not sure then you can add hafnium-team@google.com.
