The note about the single change workflow is included in the
git-codereview installation instructions, but it has nothing to do with
installing git-codereview. This note is more relevant for when a change
is actually being made.

If people are interested in contributing to Go, but not sure what
change they'd like to make just yet, we can point them to the scratch
repo, so they can go through the process of submitting and merging
something now, and make more useful contributions later.
My evidence that sending people to the scratch repo would encourage
future contributions is that a number of people who went through the
workshop at Gophercon have continued to send CL's after submitting to
the scratch repo, even though I doubt they planned to before going
through the workshop.

I walked through the steps for a contribution but ended up
with an error when doing "git mail" because I didn't have a
signed agreement.
Added a section to check for or create one through Gerrit right
after the user has created the account and logged in.
Moved some info from copyright section to the new section.

This CL adjusts code referring to src/pkg to refer to src.
Immediately after submitting this CL, I will submit
a change doing 'hg mv src/pkg/* src'.
That change will be too large to review with Rietveld
but will contain only the 'hg mv'.
This CL will break the build.
The followup 'hg mv' will fix it.
For more about the move, see golang.org/s/go14nopkg.
