Hi Julien,

By far the best way to do this is by making the changes in git, pushing them
to a personal git remote (you can get a free one at github), and asking us to
merge them.

There are some tips on how to do that here:

Since you're on Windows and git has *nix origins, you might want to consult
resources like this too:

The IRC channel is a great place to ask questions if you need git help, just
make sure to stay in the channel so you get the answer if it comes hours/days
later.  If that is too tricky, you could email Seth and I.
