Jeff,
   Great contribution! What you'll need to do is:

   - "fork" the repository on github
   - checkout your own repo locally
   - create a branch
   - make the changes locally
   - commit and push
   - go back to github, find your new branch and you'll see an option to
   create a pull request against hollie/master


The code can then be reviewed and "pulled" into the main repo.
