attached you may find two patches, which I've previously sent to the

I suggest you try "git format-patch -s --stdout |less" before sending
format-patch without parameters produces nothing.

Even assuming you run something like "git-format-patch start.."
(note the range specification), its output is NOT what sendmail
can use (unless you have a special sendmail which understands
mboxes).
