git write access

[bdodge]

I'd like to contribute a PR, but can't push commits on my branch to github (permission). How do I get permission?

The way Git(hub) works is that you initially fork the repository into your own namespace (See the 'fork' button, top-right in the Github page). That gives you a copy of esp-idf you can edit, make branches, do whatever in. If you have a branch with updates you want to make a PR of, you can then do that from there.
