Why? There are lots of people who only send a few patches per year
and they all know how to contribute them.

Not true.
For developers we have other quite extensive documentation in the gcc
internals manual and on various web pages that tell you the procedures
and expectations when you want to contribute a patch.
Those few users who want to help developing gcc can find links to that
documentation in the chapter "Contributing to GCC development" in the
users manual. It seems you overlooked that chapter.
