you need to create. also make sure that you are not working directly from the
antlr/antlr4 repository. once you create your account, goto repository
antlr/antlr4 and click the fork button, which will create a fork in your name
acondit/antlr4. Then, this is what you will clone onto your local disk. for
example, I use g...@github.com:parrt/antlr4.git as the address of my fork vs
g...@github.com:antlr/antlr4.git

The current directory structure is
antlr4/
gunit/
runtime/Java/
tool/test
tool/src
so you could map antlr4 anywhere you want on your disk. I did this:
$ mkdir antlr/code
$ cd antlr/code
$ git clone g...@github.com:parrt/antlr4.git
which makes the antlr4 dirt in the current directory.

see above.

The procedure is to work directly from your fork repository. you can do
anything you want without repository but you should work in the dev branch or a
branch special to your features you are adding or something. to get something
back into the master repository, you do a pull request from your dev branch to
the antlr/antlr4 dev branch. I will then merge that in.

Basically we won't mess with master branch at the main repository until we do
a release or we need to share things among us. that would be the dev branch.
So, as I finish working on a new feature, I will do a pull request myself to
get my dev stuff into the main repository dev. eventually, we will merge that
into the master of the main repository and tag it as a release.
