Creating a Pull Request (PR) as an Outside Contributor

We don't allow non-devs to commit directly to the repositories. Please don't let that discourage you from helping and submitting PRs to us.

Before you do, make sure you have reviewed our style guide

Some basic steps:

1. Create your own fork on GitHub
2. Check out your fork
3. Make a local branch and commit the changes to it
4. Push the changes to your fork
5. Open a PR that requests merging the changes into the upstream master branch
