as i said, i'm also doing that kind of work and it does not annoy me. Actually, i'm already happy to just have patches from other people for the project i mentioned :)
Well, instead of it being basically a 10 second job of doing 'git am' on a patch, you make it into a several-minute job.
I don't know what others do on their spare times, but I would do more use in more open source projects if more contributors helped me shrink down more jobs into 10 second ones rather than multiple minutes.
I don't think anyone says doing something for a few minutes is a big effort. It is the bottle neck when a few people do these sort of things a lot that we don't like, when we can have it distributed and shared a lot better.
Does it make me not appreciate un-polished patches? No. But I still prefer them to be as polished as possible...
