It's easier to have the patch in the email itself, this looks it's
some form of attachment.

Checkout Documentation/SubmittingPatches (protip: get "git send-email"
working, it will
send in the preferred way by default for nearly any open source
project using email based
workflows.)

There are also some resources on the web, how to send patches,
although it should be
all covered in our Documentation,
http://alblue.bandlem.com/2011/12/git-tip-of-week-patches-by-email.html

For the patch itself:

$ grep -r usage *.c builtin/*.c |wc -l
551
$ grep -r Usage *.c builtin/*.c |wc -l
3

The community agreed (maybe subconciously) to prefer lower case
for the 'usage' string, so I don't think this is an improvement.
