Submitting a Patch
If you make changes to Video Monkey which you think would be useful to others, please consider submitting a patch. Simply use git to make a patch. This requires knowledge of git which can be a bit daunting at first. But there are many good tutorials on the web.
To make it more likely that a patch will be accepted, please document what is being changed and its benefits. Also, attempt to follow the style guidelines of the current code as much as possible. A clear and well documented patch is much more likely to be accepted than one that is makes many arbitrary or unrelated changes or which are poorly formatted.
Once you've prepared a patch, open an issue, marking it appropriately (enhancement or bug) and then attach the patch to the bug.
