You need to tell git that it should talk to GitHub (they're not the same thing despite sharing lots of letters in their names). 

git clone git@github.com:IanBod/module-starter.git

For it to work, you first need to upload your public ssh key to GitHub. Yes, it's getting complex...

map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]

    Maybe so...but with help we've got there :)

    My fork of the module now exists locally, it's been updated so it doesn't reference CPAN Ratings in POD or README. It's been tested locally so it's ready to go...

    How do I...

    1. Get the local copy back to GitHub?
    2. Do the PR?

    Update...
    Reading this article makes me think that I perhaps should have cloned instead of forked. I guess it doesn't matter for this simple case but am I right that I should have cloned the repo?

    Another Update...
    I *think* I have done the PR...is it now a case of waiting for the maintainer?

      You have and it is here and it looks good to me. Yes, just wait for a response now - there is nothing more for you to do at this point other than reflect on a job well done.

        Huge thanks to hippo and choroba for the hand-holding through this...it feels like a big step forward :)

        Was I right to 'fork' the disto or would a 'clone' have been a better option?
