We have restored commit access to the `swift/master` branch in [GitHub - apple/llvm-project: The LLVM Project is a collection of modular and reusable compiler and toolchain technologies. This fork is used to manage Apple’s stable releases of Clang as well as support the Swift project.](https://github.com/apple/llvm-project). Changes to that branch require a passing pull request before they can be merged. The `swift/master` branch allows LLDB changes **only** , and does not accept changes in other split directories in llvm-project. The other branches are not yet open for merges (the only exception are PRs that unblock CI or PR testing issues). Please see this reply in the monorepo thread for more details: [LLVM monorepo transition happening on Thursday, the 17th of October - #12 by Alex\_L](https://forums.swift.org/t/llvm-monorepo-transition-happening-on-thursday-the-17th-of-october/29674/12).
