Hi Harish,

Sorry for the late reply. Couldn't find much time last few days.

I'm afraid this won't work. The '.patch' file that `git-format-patch` 
generates also contains your commit message and the author information. 
All those are needed to properly convert your patch to a commit in my 
repo. The output of `git diff --patch-with-stat` won't be enough.

As for not wanting to store your mail password in a plain text file, 
check out [0].

And then there is GitGitGadget too, which I'd recommend since you seem 
to be having trouble sending patches directly :).

Makes sense.

Thanks for clarifying. It indeed was a misunderstanding.
