Sorry, apparently patches need to be sent inline, I just noticed. Please excuse my ignorance.

They don't need to be inline, although it is preferred. What they need to be is made with git format-patch, which preserves authorship information and commit message.

Thanks for your explanation. Hopefully now it is OK.

Also, the commit message should be descriptive of what it fixes, and not only reference a ticket number.

Like this?

Well, yes and no. If you want to send inline patches, then only the patch as generated by git format-patch should be your mail, and no line wrapping should occur because that corrupts the patch. Copy-pasting the patch to a regular mail client does not work (a regular mail client wraps lines, eats up whitespace, etc), so I think most people just use git send-email.

Oh, it looks like Thunderbird is really stupid in that regard. In my "Sent" folder the patch looks correct. Not so on the list. :(

If you can't or won't use that, then sending the patch as attachment is the safer bet to avoid patch corruption. Many people does that, even if that is not what we generally prefer.

I have never come around to setting up postfix for forwarding mails externally on my current system. So, for now, I am using the second best solution. Please see the attachment.

Thanks again for your explanation.

Subject: [PATCH] configure: Fix bashism in openal check.

Apparently zsh, when run in sh-compatibility mode (started as 'sh') is
very strict about command lists, which must always end with a semicolon.
Even dash let this one slide.

Fixes #9135
