### Q: How do I submit a patch?
See this message:
1. Make all the changes in your working directory, i.e. edit files, move
[​https://groups.google.com/group/qubes-devel/msg/c3f6c50502595424](https://groups.google.com/group/qubes-devel/msg/c3f6c50502595424)
them around (you can use 'git mv' for this), etc.
1. Add the changes and commit them (git add, git commit).
Never mix different changes into one commit!
Write a good description of the commit. The first line should contain a short summary, and then, if you feel like more explanations are needed, enter an empty new line, and then start the long, detailed description (optional).
1. Test your changes NOW: check if RPMs build fine, etc.
1. Create the patch using 'git format-patch'. This has an advantage over
'git diff', because the former will also include your commit message, your name and email, so that \*your\* name will be used as a commit's author.
1. Send your patch to qubes-devel. Start the message subject with the
'[PATCH]' string.
