Hi Peter,

thank you for your email.

That awkward patch on the bug tracker was a try to see if that was
somehow possible and useful.  Now I see that it wasn't a good idea, so
sorry for the chaos I created.

The problem is on my side as I haven't found an optimal way to
contribute yet.

I use github pretty much only to contribute to nixpkgs and I am not good
at using it.

I used to contribute more and I'd like to contribute more again but with
less time available on my side I would also like to find a better way of
contributing, without having to go through web browser and clicking
around to submit PRs or create new issues.

I found a way to create issues with a simple script via github json API.

It is possible to reply to issues via email already so this is good.
(That's how I sent the patch to the bug tracker, for example.)

I haven't found any way to create PRs without a web-browser.  I wonder,
if it is possible?

Thanks again for your time and sorry for inconvenience.

Tomas
