## Submitting a pull request
For submitting changes, you can use whatever workflow you're more comfortable with.
### Using Github's web interface
The easiest way to submit a change is to just edit the page directly on the Github interface.
Check out the step-by-step instructions (with screenshots) on
[Github Help](https://help.github.com/articles/editing-files-in-another-user-s-repository/).
### Using the command line
Alternatively, you can do most of the process using the command line:
- fork the repository on the github web interface
- clone your fork locally:
`git clone https://github.com/{{your_username}}/tldr.git && cd tldr`
- create a feature branch, e.g. named after the command you plan to edit:
`git checkout -b {{branch_name}}`
- make your changes (edit existing files or create a new one)
- commit the changes:
`git commit --all -m "{{commit_message}}"`
- push to your fork:
`git push origin {{branch_name}}`
- go to the github page for your fork and click the green pull request button.
Please send only related changes in the same pull request.
Typically a pull request will include changes in a single file.
Alternatively, you can do most of the process
