How do I contribute a PR to a module?
-
Seasoned developer here. Total n00b to OSS development.
I wanted to dip my toe in the water by sumbitting a PR to edit someone’s readme. It appears I don’t have write requests to the repo, which makes total sense… so how is this usually done?
Do I fork the whole repo and then request a merge or something?Is there a guide somewhere?

- Make a GITHUB account
- Fork the original target repository to your account.
- git-clone forked repo into your local dev pc.
- Do your modifications in your local repo.
- Commit your modified version to your GitHub.
- Make PR to the original target repo.
- Wait for confirmation and merging by original owner.
