Installing
Generally, you should use the free installer, which contains all of the dependencies and will get you up and running with a few clicks. See the Dev Environment Setup if you'd like to deal with dependencies on your own.
Using Metasploit
Metasploit can do all sorts of things. The first thing you'll want to do
is start msfconsole, but after that, you'll probably be best served by
reading Metasploit Unleashed, the great community
resources, or the wiki.
Contributing
See the Dev Environment Setup guide on GitHub, which will walk you through the whole process from installing all the dependencies, to cloning the repository, and finally to submitting a pull request. For slightly more information, see Contributing.
*Note that all licence references and agreements mentioned in the Metasploit README section above
are relevant to that project's source code only.
