I don't know whether my procedure to generate patch is right.Share it with you and you can comment it ,feed back to me!
First, I change the document in the master branch, but don't commit to master branch. Then I use "git diff" to generate the patch.
Why not commit? A simple way to do this would be. Why do I not commit? Because I don't this easy method to generate patch file. I read SubmittingPatches, just to understand I can use git diff to get my patch. Then I don't search any advanced, good method. This shows that I am not familiar with git.
1. Make changes as per requirements 2. Commit them 3. Use `git format-patch` to generate patches.
"git format-patch" is great. The format is very nice to read.
4. Check using checkpatch 5. `Use git send-email` to mail those patches to the required list. But I don't find git "send-email" in my system. I test in git 2.1.4 and git 2.5.1 on my Debian. Search it , I find I lost a package git-email.
I still have much to learn.Thank you. - mudongliang
