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
