|
||
|
|
|
||
|

{% hint style='info' %}
|
||
|
|
This guide assumes you're somewhat comfortable with running things at the command line, and have git installed on your system.
|
||
|
|
{% endhint %}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Start on the [QMK Github page](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware), and you'll see a button in the upper right that says "Fork":
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you're apart of an organization, you'll need to choose which account to fork it to. In most circumstances, you'll want to fork it to your personal account.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From there, click the "Clone or Download" button:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And be sure to select "HTTPS", and select the link and copy it:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From here, enter `git clone ` into the command line, and then paste your link:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
**[terminal]
|
||
|
|
**[prompt you@computer]**[path ~]**[delimiter $ ]**[command git clone https://github.com/whoeveryouare/qmk_firmware.git]

||

From here, you can add your keymap, compile it and flash it to your board. Once you're happy with your changes, you can add, commit, and push them to your fork like this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
**[terminal]
|
||
|
|
**[prompt you@computer]**[path ~/qmk_firmware]**[delimiter $ ]**[command git add .]
|
||

**[prompt you@computer]**[path ~/qmk_firmware]**[delimiter $ ]**[command git commit -m "adding my keymap"]

If you go back to your fork on Github, you can create a "New Pull Request" by clicking this button:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From here, you'll be able to see exactly what you've committed - if it all looks good, you can finalize it by clicking "Create Pull Request":
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From here, we may talk to you about your changes, ask that you make changes as we see fit, and eventually accept it! Thanks for contributing to QMK :)
