[XeTeX] I want to commit to xetex, how to make a pull request?

[Joseph Wright]

Ah, right.

This looks like cross-engine work, which mainly happens in the TL repo. 
It will need to be ported back to the SourceForge repo at some stage I 
guess.

Personally, I'd just use the TL repo and leave that sort of admin to 
Karl or the people with write access on the SourceForge repo.
