     git remote add upstream git@github.com:jboss-developer/jboss-stacks-client.git

  4. Get the latest files from the upstream repository.

     git fetch upstream

  5. Create a new topic branch to contain your features, changes, or fixes.

     git checkout -b <topic-branch-name> upstream/master

  6. Contribute new code or make changes to existing files.

  7. Commit your changes to your local topic branch. You must use git add filename for every file you create or change.

     git add <changed-filename>
 git commit -m `Description of change...`

  8. Push your local topic branch to your github forked repository. This will create a branch on your Git fork repository with the same name as your local topic branch name.

     git push origin HEAD

  9. Browse to the branch on your forked Git repository and open a Pull Request. Give it a clear title and description.
