Xapian devel - Apr 2019 - Help Regarding, Improve Estimated total number of results

The GSoC guide section recommends reading of the hacking. But there are many
files in the resources link given for the project. Should I start from the
matcher files (matcher.cc and matcher.h) or is there something else I should do?
Please help.

Thanks & Regards,
Hemant Kumar Singh

I don't actually see a reference to HACKING on
https://trac.xapian.org/wiki/GSoC%20Guide but it does direct you to the
developer guide (which is the new home for much of the information that
was living in HACKING).

Most of the files in the matcher subdirectory are relevant to this
project, but matcher.* is probably a good place to start.

Okay thanks, how do I make a patch and submit one? Do you have a link for the
same?
