You can just get a git checkout via git clone and then develop fixes and
enhancements locally in a branch.

You can then create patches from your local git commits using e.g.

  git format-patch -1

(for "turn the last 1 commits into patch files") and attach those to
bugs in bugzilla (http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/bugs/)
