Here’s my point of view:
- clone the upstream repository
- make commits
- format patches
- configure git send-mail
- …or find out which addresses to send the mail and who to cc with
etc/teams.scm
- send email

Which is more complicated than the AGit flow IMO.  And we will need
documentation on how to contribute no matter which way we choose.

What I especially like about the AGit flow is that it just uses git,
which is a common factor. No need for an alternate patch format, or
email.

Cheers,
Noé
