I'll only respond to the "Subject" as I am not involved in that book project.

1. Visit https://git-scm.com/book/ and find "The source of this book
   is hosted on GitHub.  Patches, suggestions and comments are
   welcome."  'hosted on GitHub' has link. Click.

2. We are taken to github.com/progit/progit2; among the list of
   files, I see CONTRIBUTING.md, which sounds promising. Click.

3. Very helpful notes about how the project expects contributions to
   them appear; at the end, there is Translations section, with a
   link to TRANSLATING.md. Click.

4. There seems to be a table that maps language to a separate
   repository.  -ru seems to map to https://github.com/progit/progit2-ru
   but I cannot even read the language and cannot grok the left hand
   side column of the table where it has the name of the language
   X-<.  Just guess, have faith and click.

5. There is a search box at the top of the page.  I blindly copy and
   paste "вы рассмотрим" from your message and click "In
   this repository".  Then I change my mind and enclose the two-word
   search term inside a pair of double quotes and do the same.

6. I find only one instance of the combination of two words in the
   result.

I cannot read/understand much of the things I see during this journey, but hopefully I helped you a bit?
