git - Can you open a pull request to add code from a repo to yours? -
basically, have user forked repository of mine. improvements they've made code, i'd add repo. there anyway can open pull request or use method add code repo?
the appropriate thing contact them , ask if open pull request merge changes original repository.
while clone repo, add original remote, merge changes locally , push own repo, need check license, , might not know pulled work yours. if want try this, following:
- clone fork containing code want merge.
- make sure fork in sync.
- add original repository remote fork cloned.
- push new work original repository using remote created, ideally should push feature/topic branch there nice history of commits future reference.
- thank author of code, , send them link new branch code on on repository, can see work being used others.
if liked changes made in fork of repository, appreciate hearing direct them, , happily open pr if asked. that's easy route.
