How to commit?

I have written a working solution for 
<https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=62772> and 
<https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=62789>, the requests for 
the <jar> task to support modular attributes.  My code modifies 
module-info.class directly in the .jar file.  (It actually wasn’t as 
hard as I was expecting it to be.)

I would love to submit the changes, but I’m not clear on how to do it 
using gitbox.  I can clone the codebase easily enough, but I don’t know 
how to get an account there in order to submit changes.

I figured I could just follow the instructions at 
<https://gitbox.apache.org/setup/>, but that requires logging into 
<https://id.apache.org>, which in turn requires an Apache user ID, which 
I don’t seem to have.  When I submitted an ICLA a few months ago, I 
didn’t specify a desired user ID.  I’m now thinking I should have, but 
I’m not sure how to rectify the situation.

 From what I’ve been reading, it appears it’s still possible to use 
GitHub, but I’m not certain.  And even if it is possible and 
permissible, I’m not sure whether I should do that, or if I should be 
using gitbox as much as possible now.

Hi Craig,

Commits to the repository are only allowed for committers of the
project. For contributing patches (like this one), you can use the
github pull request process. Once reviewed, the merge will then be done
by one of the existing project committers and the contribution will be
credited to you.
