Subject: Little help submitting a patch on 3.0.x branch

Hi, I'm having trouble submitting a patch for review. Sorry, I'm new to git and 
Review Board.

I created my working directory from this repository and branch and I made my 
edits:

git clone http://git.cloud.com/cloudstack-oss --branch 3.0.x

If I choose "cloudstack-git" at https://reviews.apache.org/r/new/ and submit a 
diff file (the output of "git diff"), it reports the error "The file 
'awsapi/conf/cloud-bridge.properties' (r08f5603) could not be found in the 
repository".

I think I need to specify the Parent Diff, but I'm not sure what it's supposed 
to be.

I'm probably having a similar problem when I tried using "post-review":

   $pwd
   /home/jimbo/src/git.cloud.com/3.0.x/cloudstack-oss
   $ post-review --tracking-branch=upstream/3.0.x  --server 
https://reviews.apache.org
   There don't seem to be any diffs!

Thanks,
Jamshid Afshar
