I think the patch itself looks OK, but:

  1. It isn't formatted to apply with git-am. Please use
     git-format-patch.

git format-patch command wouldn't work for me. I can see that you
don't need more stuff to do but not knowing git I couldn't find the
correct incantation to do this part. A problem with the files not
being in a git repo I think. I'll spare you details.

The usual procedure is:

  1. hack hack hack

  2. git commit

  3. git format-patch

Roger wilco.

And if you are not in a git repo, step 0 is "git init". :)

I had an inkling but nothing more.

Thanks again for the help!
