Hi John,

It looks like you're using git already, so you could make this easier
on yourself and me by making use of git features. :-)

Assuming that you have barry cloned in your own directory, you could
do your development in your own branch:

        cd barry
        git checkout -b category master
        <do your work>
        git add ...
        git commit

You can make your patches look nice and tidy by using git-rebase:

        cd barry
        git checkout category
        git rebase -i master

Once you are happy with your changes, create patches:

        cd barry
        git checkout category
        git format-patch master

This creates a patch file for each commit in your branch.  Attach these
files to your email to the mailing list, and done!

If I haven't commited your patches yet, you can always make new fixes to your
own branch, and then just submit your latest commit as a patch.  This makes
it easier for me to see what changed in each step.

You don't have to do this for these patches, but please do in the future.
Might as well make full use of git. :-)

(I'm just getting to your patches today... comments coming once I have a
chance for testing and reading them.)

Thanks,
- Chris
