Hi Michael, I might be able to shed some light on this. The process I've used is as follows:
1. I go to the apache/TomEE git hub page and click on "Fork" (its a button on the top right) 2. Select your own account and it will clone the entire TomEE repo to your own account. On my its monsonhaefel/TomEE 3. Now clone your own copy to your local machine by creating a directory for it and executing the clone command. You will need the URL for TomEE repository on your own account. You can get that by going to your own TomEE repo and clicking on the green "Clone or Download" button and copying the URL. Once you have the URL you can make a clone using the git clone command. In my case it looks as follows: $ git clone https://github.com/monsonhaefel/tomee.git 4. Once you have the TomEE repo from your own account on your local machine, you can make changes to any file and the stage it and commit it when ready. Basically, you need two commands to commit changes. The first command simply tells git that files that have been changes need to be "staged" for commit. $ git add . //note: if you only want to stage one file replace the period with the file name (including path if you are not in the same directory as that file) otherwise the period stages all the files that have changed. Once you have staged the file you can commit as follows: $ git commit -m "This is where you write your comment explaining your changes" 5. Now that you have committed your changes to your local machine you can push them up to your GitHub account and update your personal copy of TomEE. But before you do that its important to make sure your changes don't conflict with someone else's changes by doing a pull from the original source at the apache/TomEE. That way if someone else changes the same file but got it into the repo before you, you won't overwrite their changes. This is a conflict. When you get a conflict you will see a warning and can work on a merge which is a whole 'nother topic not covered here. I have yet to run into a conflict. Here is the pull command to check for conflicts: $ git pull origin https://github.com/apache/tomee.git Notice that I did the pull on the actual TomEE project repository, not my local one. 6. Assuming all went well and you did not get any warnings about a conflict you can now push your changes up to your own GitHub account with the following Git command $ git push 7. Once you have pushed the code up to your GitHub account you can proceed to make a Pull Request. Just go to your GitHub account and your own TomEE page and click on tab named "Pull Request". It will identify the changes you made and allow you to title and describe your changes. When you save the pull request it will automatically go into the apache/TomEE project for others to review and, if your changes are accepted, commit to the main project. I've left out some details as I trying to do this on the fly. Also, its entirely possible I made some mistakes, but I think the process above should get you there.
