I suppose knowing how to make a patch against latest fetch of remote branch (locally named web/master if you follow README from scratch), but I may mention "git format-patch HEAD^" too. I'll also add a short explanation about branches (what is a branch, remote/local branches). > Well, by the way, how is it about the installation of lilypond on > windows and mac?
