[git-users] git request-pull? how to?

2013-01-15 Thread lei yang
Hi experts

I always see something like
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/54774

Then it follows patches, I don't know how to get the first one, which
is not code changes but some info like changes since vx, and then
list the
modified files

I also see something like https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/10/158, I'm not
sure they get it use the same way

can you give me an examples, it likes a git request-pull or something else?

Looks like the result of `git format-patch` with the --cover-letter
command-line argument used.

Thanks, then I googled,  I use
git send-email -3 --annotate --cover-letter --to yanglei.f...@gmail.com
then it tell me edit the letter, then I edit it, and save it tells me
4 more files to edit, not sure this is a reminder or error?
and then Ipress enter and save it, it will send the mail

another two question:
1)does mantainer know the first letter will not merge as patch?
2)I don't know how to get below in https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/10/158
