You would build and install basemap from the git source as you would
normally from a tarball source. Make modifications to the source, do a
"python setup.py install", test, and repeat as needed. When happy, commit
those changes to your local branch, push that branch up to your github
account, and then from github make a PR.
The instructions for basemap wouldn't be all that different from
matplotlib, which can be found here:
