Whether you're trying to give back to the open source community or collaborating on your own projects, knowing how to properly fork and generate pull requests is essential. Unfortunately, it's quite easy to make mistakes or not know what you should do when you're initially learning the process. I know that I certainly had considerable initial trouble with it, and I found a lot of the information on GitHub and around the internet to be rather piecemeal and incomplete - part of the process described here, another there, common hangups in a different place, and so on.

	file_path = os.path.join(path, name)

	def remove_first_part_of_filenames(file_folder, size_str):

	for path, subdirs, files in os.walk(file_folder):

	for name in files:
