I should have.  I am just now cloning the git tree.  Once I get a my clone
I will create a working copy and make the patches to it.

I just found on the website the proper way to submit patches.  I will
follow it.  I just have been submitting patches to to many differt version
control systems.  I have to submit patches to cvs, svn, hg and git.  I
have a hard time remembering which source tree is what.  I have just now
created my

/master/src/cvs
/master/src/git
/master/src/hg
/master/src/svn
/working/src/cvs
/working/src/git
/working/src/hg
/working/src/svn

I am moving things to these directories.  This will allow me to know which
tools to use for each type of version control.  I also still have SCCS and
RCS repos as well.  I really wish we could get the industry to standardize
on git.  But that will be a while.

Sorry, I did not follow the proper method, for submittal.  I did not even
know there was one when I submitted the patches. I will do them that way
once I finish my migration above.
