That's exactly right. Pull requests leave a nice paper trail of who did
what, and who requested what, but only work within the sphere of Git.
Randolph, you could also just make a diff/patch of your changes on your
branch ('git diff > changes.patch') and send to Schorsch, which he can
apply manually ('git apply changes.patch'):

https://git-scm.com/docs/git-apply
This method works across version control systems, and is what I do to get
my changes (managed on GitHub) to Greg (who's using CVS).
