1. The most right github-specific way: The one who wants his changes applied sends you a pull request. After that everything is done in more or less trivial GUI: http://help.github.com/pull-requests/ 2. The github way: You open your fork queue, and work with commits in GUI: https://github.com/keplerproject/luarocks/forkqueue (link will work only for repo owner, see also corresponding tab in the GUI) 3. The Git way, works everywhere: Add other repo as a remote: $ git remote add -f <remotename> <url> Inspect commits $ git log -p <remotename>/<branch> Pick a commit to your branch (make sure that your branch is checked out) $ git cherry-pick <commit-sha> HTH, Alexander. _______________________________________________ Luarocks-developers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luaforge.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/luarocks-developers
