Hi! Thanks for your comments!!

My problem is that, in my internal repository, I do many commits for each change (even for each file). The development is progressive.
Then, if I take the commit history to generate my patches, I would generate many spurious patches, making it very difficult to check and apply them.

Even doing a rebase over another branch, the rebase adds the commit history, so I keep the same problem.
And squash commits can be difficult too, because some commits are doing changes in many files.

So, at the moment, I only know dirty tricks to generate the patches.

Thanks anyway

Almudena!  Nice work on this! and Holy cow!  Your English is getting
fantastic!  It inspires me, when I see how much you're learning on this
SMP project.  Keep up the good work!

P.S.  You might be interested in using the program git send-email.
Apparently it makes it really easy to send in a patches series.  It's
actually what GNU Guix contributing guidelines recommends.

P.P.S.  I feel slightly silly giving tips, when everyone else on this
email list is several orders of magnitude a better developer than I am.
In fact, I probably only understood 50% of what this email chain was
about.  I hope this off topic email is not offensive or annoying to
anyone.  I just wanted an excuse to encourage and praise Almudena
publicly!
