better docs on how to contribute and test

[woloski]

We should add a wiki page explaining how to fork the project and run your own instance of git-azure.

In essence:

• Fork git-azure and do whatever change you want and push to your fork
• Create a test repo to try things
• DON'T run git azure init yet (you want to first add your .git-azure submodule)
• Add your own git-azure submodule git submodule add git@youruser:git-azure .git-azure
• Run git azure init ...
• Pull request :)

The way this works is because git azure init won't bring the original git-azure from https://github.com/tjanczuk/git-azure since there is already a .git-azure folder in your repo, so it will skip that and you will be running with your own

Good idea about wiki. I wonder if we should just add an option to git azure init to specify the URL of the .git-azure repository to create the submodule of off.
