Thanks, https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-cloudstack.git and your instructions made it clear. I switched to the apache git site instead of git.cloud.com and to master instead of 3.0.x.
Btw I was using "git diff", but now I understand I need to "git commit" my changes locally then "git format-patch -s master" to generate a complete patch file. The review request is https://reviews.apache.org/r/6473/. Already a problem found -- license headers. --Jamshid On Wed, Aug 8, 2012 at 12:05 PM, Pranav Saxena <pranav.sax...@citrix.com> wrote: > Also I observed that you are cloning the repository from git.cloud.com > instead of the Apache repository which is this > (https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-cloudstack.git ).
