Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the documentation that mentions the --gmock_verbose=LEVEL option and review how gtest_main.a and InitGoogleTest are described. Update the documentation to explain when InitGoogleMock or gmock_main.a is required, then verify that the documented setup matches the reported GoogleTest 1.10 behavior.
