Git commit and click

I am new to Git and I would like some advice.

I forked the project project /project.git from github and I have a remote repo copy like myname / project.git. I also have a local copy of this repo on my machine. I made some commits, pushed them to my remote repo, but my question is how do the author know what I did, what commits and pulls them to the original repo? Is there an automatic notification that does this? How can I send him a transfer request, possibly from the command line? thank
