No problem -- it's a pretty big page and it mentions a lot of different things.

The particular one I find useful is Anthony Liguori's "patches" tool: https://github.com/aliguori/patches But it's really intended to help maintainers and submaintainers: as somebody who's only submitting patches to the list you probably don't have any need to use it. thanks -- PMM
