Hi, Nicholas,
  See
https://petsc.org/release/developers/contributing/#starting-a-new-feature-branch
on how to contribute.

  You will need to create your own fork of petsc,  then create a feature
branch and your code, and then ask for a merge request to merge your branch
to the petsc repo.

  Once you have the MR, we can figure out why it could not compile.

  Thanks for the contribution!
