That is how you do it if you *already* know you want to be contribute to an application or package. But what if I was just planning to *use* an application or package, only later I ended up tracing down a bug to that application and fixed it. What is the *easiest* for me to push to my personal github account from where I make the Pull Request. Something like this [1] from within Pharo (disclaimer, I've not performed these action before, I had to hunt a bit to find it as an example)...

This will be interesting to watch. cheers -ben
