Apart from what the others replied, you could also try StGIT if you
used Quilt (it's not complicated at all anyway). Basically, you first
create a patch (or several) and all the modifications are included
into it. You push/pop patches from the top of your tree and also
e-mail them. You can always delete a patch if you no longer need it
and the changes are removed from your tree.
