Same for anyone who believes they > need it. I'd prefer more developers to more patches :) One possibility would be to create a git branch, push it to a repo on github, and then Ted can add that repo as a remote, fetch the branch from that remote, and then merge and push. It's less work than it sounds like. For the branch pusher, it should be something like: 1. if you've made the fixes against master, create a git branch for the fixes: git checkout jw-async-changes 2. create a git repo on github (or your own git server or whatever), called for the purposes of these examples jw-gnus (this is the bit that takes most work, if you don't already have a github account or your own git server or a git account on a different provider) 3. add that repo as a remote to the local gnus repo cd ~/git/gnus/ git remote add jw-gnus https://github.com/jw/jw-gnus.git 4. assuming you're already on the branch with the fixes push it to the new git repo: git push jw-gnus HEAD Pulling and merging and pushing would then be: 1. Add the new remote, and fetch its branches: git remote add jw-gnus https://github.com/jw/jw-gnus.git git fetch jw-gnus 2. Merge the branch fetched from jw-gnus git merge jw-gnus/jw-async-changes 3. Push the merge results: git push origin HEAD The result will have the full git history of the changes, with original committer (unlike a patch).
