want to provide patch

i'd like to provide a patch for some missing functionality, specifically the support handler for AverageIf (the generalized version is present but not the singular version).  what is the best way to provide that?  is there a repo where a pull request can be provided?

yes.  i figured that out after looking at the other PRs.  the gitflow mech that i'm used to had us working on branches in the same repo, not forks.  but after inspecting other PRs, the difference became apparent.  PR has been submitted for review.

TIA

Hi,

This is the default workflow of Github-repositories. You need to create a
fork of the code into a new repository, create the branch there and then
send a PR to the main repo.

The following might help:
*
https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/working-with-forks/about-forks
*
https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request-from-a-fork
* https://gist.github.com/Chaser324/ce0505fbed06b947d962

Dominik.

so i've cloned the repo, created a branch locally to make changes, added the code and a corresponding unit test.  but when i try to push back, i get permission failure.  it appears i cannot create a new branch, so that begs the question, how does one submit a PR if they cannot create a feature branch for the PR source.

Great! You'll want:

  * https://github.com/apache/poi

For formula functions, see also
