All active work done on the documentation is currently being done on the master branch.
First fork and clone the repository so that you have your own working copy. Then create a new branch on your local copy to make your changes. Once you are happy with your edits, use GitHub to issue a "pull request", which means your edits will be reviewed, and once accepted, merged into the main repository.
It's a good idea to pull in upstream changes, merge and commit to your own fork before submitting a pull request. To do this and sync your fork with this original one, you'll have to add the upstream url once:
git remote add upstream git://github.com/umbraco/OurUmbraco.git
And then each time you want to get the changes:
git fetch upstream
git rebase upstream/master
