I'm not a native english speaker and I simply expressed the reason for my problem but - after reading back my commit - neither this mail' subject and my original commit subject (see https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/pull/797/commits/0ef742a1a92ae53188189238adbd16086fabf80a) express the core problem. > > I am not a native speaker either, which makes it extra hard to > understand some commits. ;-) So I propose a wording which would have > helped me. > > > As I'm not accustomed to pushing on GIT 'git repository' , please let me know if I have something else to do ? > > I don't know how Johannes handles pushing changes upstream, maybe he > will take on the work of resending a reworded patch.

As I merged the patch into Git for Windows' `master`, I consider it my responsibility to push this upstream (unless the contributor wants to take matters into their own hands). In the future, my hope is that GitGitGadget will make contributing patches to the Git mailing list a more convenient experience, to the point that it will hopefully be pretty much as easy as iterating a PR in https://github.com/git-for-windows/git. At that point, I will ask contributors to do exactly that in order to shepherd their patches into git.git. Ciao, Dscho > > Cheers, > Stefan >
