You need to fork the main matplotlib repo, so you have your own copy associated with your github account: https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo Once you've forked it, clone it and create a branch: git clone my-forked-repo-url cd matplotlib git checkout -b my_awesome_new_feature # ... hack hack hack ... git commit -am "Useful commit message here" git push origin my_awesome_new_feature Once you've done that, make a pull request by following the instructions here: https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests Once you've done that, congratulations! Hope this helps.
