Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing documentation for authors and manuscript changes in the brainhack proceedings docs site. Document how authors work from a fork, return to the original repository, and open pull requests for changes; done means the author workflow is clear from fork through submitted PR.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

once the repo of an author is forked on the brainhack proceedings site, the authors need to open pull requests to make changes.
This happens through their original repo, and needs to be documented.
