It's a joke. It's obvious that they want people to contribute, as this follows with:

---

To prevent accidental violation of one of those guidelines, you should never

* learn git

* fork the repo

* learn python

* learn c++14

* read the code and documentation

* contribute anything to the code

* contact us

cheers, happy hecking.

---

The contribution guide in general is pretty well written and welcoming.

And for those Vulcans that are still confused, this is Morrisette-level irony.

Is it though? I think it's not the actually-just-a-coincidence type of 'irony' from her song, but rather actual 'verbal irony', https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irony#Verbal_irony.
