May I suggest three things: 1) If you get direct push access from David, please push your changes into a dedicated topic/feature branch. This way people can test your patches without disturbing master. Eventually your branch can be signed-off and merged. 2) If not, you could publish your patches (effectively your clone) elsewhere, e.g. on GitHub, such that people can easily fetch, test, sign-off and merge your branch. 3) If you send your patches via mail, please use "git format-patch" to retain their meta information (David: use "git am" to apply them, or reject them, see below). Gianfranco: please make sure your patches are committed separately such that they could be cherry-picked if needed. David: if you can't sign-off on a patch as is, please let Gianfranco fix it, then sign-off and merge his fixed/final version.
