As Matthias said, edit and commit your changes in a different branch.

However, instead of just formatting the patch like so:

You can actually format the patches and send the emails simultaneously. This
can work if you have imap set up in your `.gitconfig` in your home directory.
`git format-patch -C --stdout origin/master | git imap-send`
This is what the imap section of my `.gitconfig` looks like for my Gmail acct.
I'm sure this is a usable template for other imap providers.
[imap]
folder = "[Gmail]/Drafts"
host = imaps://imap.gmail.com
user = <username>@gmail.com
pass = <password>
port = 993
sslverify = false
Or you can disregard the pipe and send the patches via your favorite email
client.
`git format-patch -C origin/master`
`mutt -H 0001*.patch`
Best,
Dan
