## New merge request from a fork
After forking a project and applying your local changes, complete the following steps to
create a merge request from your fork to contribute back to the main project:
1.
Go to
**Projects > Your Projects**
and select your fork of the repository.
1.
In the left menu, go to
**Merge Requests**
, and click
**New Merge Request**
.
1.
In the
**Source branch**
drop-down list box, select your branch in your forked repository as the source branch.
1.
In the
**Target branch**
drop-down list box, select the branch from the upstream repository as the target branch.
1.
After entering the credentials, click
**Compare branches and continue**
to compare your local changes to the upstream repository.
1.
Assign a user to review your changes, and click
**Submit merge request**
.
When the changes are merged, your changes are added to the upstream repository and
the branch as per specification. After your work is merged, if you don't intend to
make any other contributions to the upstream project, you can unlink your
fork from its upstream project in the
**Settings > Advanced Settings**
section by
[
removing the forking relashionship
](
../settings/index.md#removing-a-fork-relationship
)
.
