Christ, Simon attached the patch too.

Simon, I think you can sent the patch inline with your message in the
beginng by using a scissors line.

    $ git help mailinfo
    […]
       --scissors
           Remove everything in body before a scissors line. A line that
           mainly consists of scissors (either ">8" or "8<") and perforation
           (dash "-") marks is called a scissors line, and is used to request
           the reader to cut the message at that line. If such a line appears
           in the body of the message before the patch, everything before it
           (including the scissors line itself) is ignored when this option is
           used.

           This is useful if you want to begin your message in a discussion
           thread with comments and suggestions on the message you are
           responding to, and to conclude it with a patch submission,
           separating the discussion and the beginning of the proposed commit
           log message with a scissors line.

           This can enabled by default with the configuration option
           mailinfo.scissors.

       --no-scissors
           Ignore scissors lines. Useful for overriding mailinfo.scissors
           settings.
    […]

And Chris can use `git am -c …` to apply the patch (`git help am`).

[…]


Thanks,

Paul
