I have applied it as a patch - it's just that if you're somebody I
know sends me git pull requests _too_, then it's generally best to
tell me explicitly that this patch is supposed to be applied as a
patch.
Otherwise it's ambiguous - am I cc'd for some informational reason and
I'll get it later in a git pull request, or did you send it to me
explicitly because you're _not_ planning on sending it as a git pull..
Put another way: if I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do about a
patch, mistakes happen (ie I can go "ok, I saw it, I'll archive it and
get it later through git").
