I copy/paste what I wrote here [1], waiting to improve the manual or the cookbook. --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- The next step is to commit the changes. In this case, three commits (one per package) seem nice. Give a look to previous commits as example of commit message (ChangeLog format, etc.). Now, it is time to prepare the submission: git format-patch --cover-letter -o patches master this will create the 3 patches in the folder patches/ and one cover letter. Edit the cover letter to describe what the patches are about then submit it to the bug tracker: git send-email --to=guix-patc...@gnu.org patches/0000-cover-letter.patch Wait the answer to the bug tracker. You should receive an email (if your .gitconfig is ok) with the bug number. Last submit the patches: git send-email --to=abc...@debbugs.gnu.org patches/000{1,2,3}-* where ABCDEF is the bug number. --8<---------------cut here---------------stop------------->8--- You can also run: rm patches/0000-cover-letter.patch git send-email --to=abc...@debbugs.gnu.org patches/00* to send all the patches to the bug number ABCDEF. Be careful to not send twice the same patch. :-) Then you can also send normal email to abc...@debbugs.gnu.org to discuss the patch. And another version (say version 2) of the patch series is produced with the git option --reroll-count=2 (in short -v2): git rebase -i / git amend / do your change git format-patch -v2 git send-email --to=abc...@debbugs.gnu.org patches/v2-000* Note that you need to "guix install git:send-email". Hope that helps. All the best, simon [1] https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2019-10/msg00093.html
