How to handle merge request on github.com

[vit...@gmail.com]

Hello Gophers,

I try to fork some package in Golang and right now want to return back changes in base package but I change import's.

Project owner can not apply merge request with my chages with different import paths. How you suggest resolving that problem?

Thanks.

Just change the import paths back again if you want to merge with upstream.

If you just want to work on code which is to be merged with upstream you should do the development in the upstream project path all the time instead of changing imports. If you are using git you can add your own repository location as a remote instead of checking it out in a different location..
