Nope.

Personally I'd follow "CG 3.2 Starting with Git", doing all stuff
myself where needed. As said before.

If you want a LilyDev then:
For LINUX probably best to download
LilyDev-1-debian.tar.xz
from
https://github.com/fedelibre/LilyDev/releases
and follow the instructions in section "Container" from here:
https://github.com/fedelibre/LilyDev/tree/master/mkosi

Well, to submit a patch you'll need git.
Once the setup works, you may want to do more than one patch.

Doing development-work will always come along with some new software ;)
At least the LilyDev-container will help a bit.

Maybe Federico steps in, he knows his stuff best, ofcourse
