### Contributing via git
You can fork the `xbps-packages` git repository on github and then set up
a remote to pull in new changes:
Fork the voidlinux `xbps-packages` git repository on github and clone it:
$ git remote add voidlinux git://github.com/voidlinux/xbps-packages.git
$ git clone git://github.com/<user>/xbps-packages.git
To pull in new changes from `voidlinux`:
You can now make your own commits to the `forked` repository:
$ git pull voidlinux master
$ git add ...
$ git commit ...
$ git push ...
To keep your forked repository always up to date, setup the `upstream` remote
to pull in new changes:
$ git remote add upstream git://github.com/voidlinux/xbps-packages.git
$ git pull upstream master
Once you've made changes to your `forked` repository you can submit
a github pull request; see https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo for more information.
