Usually there is just no need to commit changes into foreign code. And
based on experience, in most cases it's better to discuss the changes
with the maintainer before and let him make the final decision whether
or not to apply the changes. Often maintainer know their code better
and maybe have a different point of view in fixing or extending the
code.
So, talking to the maintainer and sending in a patch should be
the way to go in the first place, usually.
