What do you think about these instructions?
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/contributor/pushing-to-staging
I have a few comments, but I'm not sure about any of them:
1. There's no real purpose in pulling and rebasing the staging branch,
assuming that this branch should be "clean" (we should work on master
or on a local branch).
2. That page should explain how to generate a patch with format-patch.
I think that `git format-patch origin` works most of the times, at
least in my setup.
3. I don't like much the `git merge` approach suggested for those who
work with local branches, as the git log is a bit messed up (a merge
commit is added, often faraway from the commit containing the real
changes). I'd rather suggest using format-patch and git am even in this
case.
