You don't. Commit rights are reserved for core developers only - this is
to ensure that some random person can't just show up and draw dicks in
our source tree, or something. Also so that we can review all changes
and catch any obvious errors.

What you do is fork the repository, commit changes to your own fork,
then file a pull request to the main repository to get the changes
merged from your fork to upstream.
