Help!
I had a suggestion for a small new feature for a #rstats package. I asked on GitHub. Author said "This sounds reasonable, would you be interested in submitting a pull-request?".
Now what? I have absolutely no idea what this implies or what I need to do.

You clone it. Then create a branch. Make you changes and then github should offer the difference between their repo and yours as a pull request. Roughly like that.

Suppose I clone it, and then it takes me a few days to make the changes, and the owner decides to make some changes to the same source file in the meantime? Does it work like diff/patch?

Yes. I'd say it's a wrapper around diff/patch. I find it as irritating as you. I need to Google it every time I do it.
