As the person submitting the PR, there is a checkbox (that is checked by default) that grants reviewers access to the branch.
As a reviewer, the procedure is to git remote add $user g...@github.com: $user/nixpkgs.git. Checkout the branch and push the commits that you want. Force-push is not allowed for the reviewer on that branch. To make things a bit faster, install the hub <https://hub.github.com/> CLI, then you can hub remote add $user which translates to the same as above.
