hippojay, I read through the wiki and it didn't say anything about git pull requests for the main code base. What list do those go on?
TIA

you fork the main xbmc repo, clone it to you local system, add add the upstream remote which is the main xbmc repo, make your changes to your local branch & test as much as you can, then commit locally to your branch, then push them back *to your own fork* (NOT xbmc master) on github (first git fetch and git merge any changes to mainline that have occurred in the interim), then use the pull request button on github to make a pull request, which is a request that one of the main xbmc debs pulls it back into the main codebase (review your code on the way through jsut to be sure it's PRing what you intended).
It's actually pretty easy...once you've done it once...
