Correct code-block lexers
Changing `bash` lexer to `console` because it is appropriate most of
the time. Then after a manual review, some lexer have been changed.

I used `text` each time I was unsure, and for prompt outputs.

The page `/developer/building/qubes-iso-building.rst` still need to be
reviewed (look for lines starting with `$ #`).

I'm not sure about the Windows pages, should we use
[doscon](https://pygments.org/docs/lexers/#pygments.lexers.shell.MSDOSSessionLexer)
or `powershell`?

Is there an appropriate lexer for `guid.conf` content?

**Statistics - Before**
    870 bash
      9 python
      9 c
      2 yaml

**Statistics - After**
    684 console
    111 text
     44 bash
     16 yaml
      9 systemd
      9 c
      8 python
      4 ini
      4 doscon
      2 markdown
      2 desktop
      1 xorg.conf
      1 xml+jinja
      1 xml
      1 kconfig
      1 html

This suggests that the default lexer should be `console`.

===========
Source code
===========
All the Qubes code is kept in Git repositories. We have divided the project into several components, each of which has its own separate repository, for example:
- ``core-admin.git`` The core Qubes infrastructure, responsible for VM management, VM templates, fs sharing, etc.
- ``gui-daemon.git`` GUI virtualization, Dom0 side.
- ``gui-agent-linux.git`` GUI virtualization, Linux VM side.
- ``linux-template-builder.git`` Scripts and other files used to create Qubes template images.
All of our repositories are available under the `QubesOS GitHub account <https://github.com/QubesOS/>`__.
To clone a repository:
.. code:: console
git clone https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-<repo_name>.git <repo_name>
e.g.:
.. code:: console
git clone https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-core-admin.git core-admin
To build Qubes you do not need to download all these repositories. If you use :doc:`qubes builder </developer/building/qubes-builder>` you can specify *what* you want to build, and download only the repositories needed to build that target.
If you really do want to clone **all** of the repositories, you can use these commands:
.. code:: console
curl "https://api.github.com/orgs/QubesOS/repos?page=1&per_page=100" | grep -e 'clone_url*' | cut -d \" -f 4 | xargs -L1 git clone
curl "https://api.github.com/orgs/QubesOS/repos?page=2&per_page=100" | grep -e 'clone_url*' | cut -d \" -f 4 | xargs -L1 git clone
To update (git fetch) **all** of these repositories :
.. code:: console
find . -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec git -C {} fetch --tags --recurse-submodules=on-demand --all \;
(Alternatively, you can pull instead of just fetching.)
How to Send Patches
-------------------
If you want to :ref:`contribute code <introduction/contributing:contributing code>` to the project, there are two ways. Whichever method you choose, you must :doc:`sign your code </developer/code/code-signing>` before it can be accepted.
- **Preferred**: Use GitHubs `fork & pull requests <https://guides.github.com/activities/forking/>`__.
Opening a pull request on GitHub greatly eases the code review and tracking process. In addition, especially for bigger changes, its a good idea to send a message to the :ref:`qubes-devel mailing list <introduction/support:qubes-devel>` in order to notify people who do not receive GitHub notifications.
- Send a patch to the :ref:`qubes-devel mailing list <introduction/support:qubes-devel>` (``git format-patch``).
1. Make all the changes in your working directory, i.e. edit files, move them around (you can use git mv for this), etc.
2. Add the changes and commit them (``git add``, ``git commit``). Never mix different changes into one commit! Write a good description of the commit. The first line should contain a short summary, and then, if you feel like more explanations are needed, enter an empty new line, and then start the long, detailed description (optional).
3. Test your changes NOW: check if RPMs build fine, etc.
4. Create the patch using ``git format-patch``. This has an advantage over ``git diff``, because the former will also include your commit message, your name and email, so that *your* name will be used as a commits author.
5. Send your patch to ``qubes-devel``. Start the message subject with ``[PATCH]``.
