The --rebase makes sure that your commits are moved +to the end of the history. It is wise to do this frequently to avoid +complicated merging. When your patches are ready, use + + git format-patch origin + +which will output numbered .patch files, one per commit, to the +current directory. Commits which are present in your repository but +not in the public repository you cloned from (origin) will be output. + +Email these to the maintainer (currently ian.hinder@aei.mpg.de) for +review and inclusion.
