I don't think it's too much to ask for to read the documentation of git and then create a set of patches. I wouldn't accept such mass mails for my own projects, it's just way too much work to import all these changes manually. And I also haven't seen any other project do that in the past 20 years, so I'm not sure how successful this strategy is. Adrian -- .''`.
