That does not seem like it would magically compile itself any more than
when you send a properly formatted patch.  Actually, it _will_ magically
compile itself (that's what Patchy-staging is for, but whatever.  I'll
pick up from Rietveld if that's what you prefer, but it _does_ make more
trouble for yourself when rebasing and merging if a naked change is
getting pushed rather than a properly recognized git patch.  With the
latter, git associates somewhat more identity.
