<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Hi Nic,<br><br></div><div>The qgis-developer list sounds a more responsive channel for this kind of request.<br><br></div>In the meantime, I see two ways to do what you want. In both cases, I think you could need to read <a href="https://guides.github.com/activities/hello-world/">https://guides.github.com/activities/hello-world/</a> for the vocabulary<br><br></div>* use github web interface: the easiest imho (I used it for months)<br> - go to the file you want to change in the master branch of qgis/QGIS repository<br> - Put it into edit state<br> - modify the file.<br> - Propose your file changes with a clear and descriptive message --> QGIS will create a new branch in your repo (sthg like yourname/QGIS/patch-1) and propose you to create a pull request. If it's the only change you have to do, you can create a pull request (ensure it's against the qgis/master branch and not your master branch). Your work can then be reviewed by the community.<br> - If you have other files to modify, browse your above yourname/QGIS/tree/patch-1 branch to the files you are looking for. And as above, commit your changes<br></div><div> - If all needed files are modified, you can create a new PR from <a href="http://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pulls">http://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pulls</a> <br><br>* use a git-based software to be able to push your changes from local to online branch and manage your repository. <a href="https://git-scm.com/downloads" target="_blank">https://git-scm.com/downloads </a><br></div><div>It can be a GUI based or a command lines tool, depending on your OS.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m looking for some help with Github Desktop and the QGIS project.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I forked the QGIS repo to my github account and then I copied into a local folder.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I changed the code but I’m unable to understand how to set up GD to push the commit to the main branch of the project.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is anybody able to suggest an online resource for noobs or describe a step by step procedure to accomplish this?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m neither a developer nor an engineer: please, be simple :)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you in advance for the help!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All the best,</p>
