Okay. I hadn't noticed before that it is just diffs you send. I can probably add a similar bit to our docs for new people who are unable to use git. I would probably still say that using git's tools are strongly preferred. Can I ask you to elaborate on the way you send patches? What tools? Is it still `diff`? Would you use `patch` if you were to receive one like you make? Do you use your regular mail client to send them?
