Perhaps some text needs moving from there to here? Yep, true. How about this? Patch 1 explains the "canonical" and "with scissors" formats of mails with patches. It's basically the same as before, except with lots of nice suggestions from Junio incorporated. Patch 2 explains how new patch submitters can test their tools before unleashing them on the world. It should be common sense, but... The text is taken from Documentation/SubmittingPatches. Patch 3 is rough; it exposes the Thunderbird MUA-specific hints. Help making it accurate and consistent with git-imap-send(1) would be very much appreciated Patch 4 contains KMail hints from SubmittingPatches; help would appreciated in making sure that's still accurate, too. Patch 5 contains the famous GMail hints, finally spreading them out in EXAMPLES sections where they belong. Maybe this can be a good starting point for future changes.
