Hi Supun, do you have any specific question or problem? Basically find a feature or bug you'd like to work on, add a comment there in the tracker, and then submit a pull request with your work.
I just wrote this to Aanand in a tracker comment, perhaps it will also help you:
If you go to https://github.com/ and look near the top, there's "Github bootcamp" which walks you through each of four steps; I think the most helpful parts of the process are https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/ and https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests -- we also have a guide at https://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/Git which contains some more information, but is not likely to be very helpful in this case.
So you'll fork the repository to your own Github account, and check out that repository on your local machine (I believe you can somehow redirect an existing repository so you don't have to check it out completely new, but I'm not sure how to do so). Create a new branch to work in, based off of the master branch since this is a few feature, then when you're done commit and push that branch back to your github account. Log back in to the github website and create a pull request to the phpMyAdmin project.
Thank you. I will try that
