It's just like anything in the Subversion project (see HACKING):

Send a mail to the dev list with the word [PATCH] and a one-line
description in the subject, and include the patch inline in your mail
(unless your MUA munges it up totally). Then a committer will pick it
up, apply it (making any formatting or content changes necessary),
check it in, and hit the magic button that updates the Tigris site.
