Download and install GitHub Desktop. Click the button on https://github.com/John-Smith-Modded/JSTR-1.7.x next to Download ZIP that saves the repo to your computer. The whole repository will be put in a folder and you can work with the files and folder structure there. When you've made your changes, you can use GitHub Desktop to commit them and then submit a pull request to get your changes into the pack.

Thanks Oddface this was really helpful. I was able to commit them. however i'm having trouble with the last pull request part

Oddface commented 8 years ago

The create pull request button is up in the right hand corner. Once you've created it you can click on Sync to send it. I think that's how it works anyway. Haven't used it myself.

Siradical commented 8 years ago

I don't know why, but it will not work for me. keeps saying I don't have permission. do I have to be a Member?

Oddface commented 8 years ago

Anyone should be able to make a pull request. I don't think you need the sync button actually. Just click send pull request.

Siradical commented 8 years ago

am I suppose to type anything particular to address it when i pull request? maybe that's what i'm doing wrong.

Oddface commented 8 years ago

I really don't know much about GitHub either, other than the bare essentials. I guess you need to create a branch first, make commits to that, and then do a pull request.

Yeah direct pushing to the repository is closed to those not in the contributor team, however you can make a fork, push to your fork then submit a pull request.

Siradical commented 8 years ago

i thought so. i'll give it a go. but the this git hub is very new too me. so how does one join the contributor team?

ScottKillen commented 8 years ago

You can contribute by following a simple process. You don't actually have to be a member of the contributor team.

The contributor team has the necessary privileges to make decisions about the direction of the pack and so it is limited...but members of the team can also do a lot of damage that is difficult to reverse...
