Thanks, Maarten. I'm getting stuck when I run hg_sage.commit() . I do not get a text editor to open as described in the links you gave me. Instead, I get the same info as when I ran hg_sage.diff(), just a list of the changes I made. Any idea of why this might happen? On Aug 30, 8:47 am, Maarten D

I would gladly make the change myself. I'm new to sage development, so I would really appreciate your help with the process for uploading a patch. I've been reading about it, but frankly I was somewhat confused by the description on the sage website, which is why I haven't done it yet. Thanks, Da
