A couple of problems with your patches: - First and foremost, you're patching the wrong file. faq/faq.html is in fact an autogenerated file. The source is actually an XML file in the Cygwin repository itself: winsup/doc/faq.xml. - Given the file you change is actually part of Cygwin, please add a "Cygwin:" prefix to your commit message summary line. - Your commit messages should explain what your doing and a bit of why wouldn't hurt either. Just the summary line is a bit on the terse end. - Please give a real name as author name, and... - ...please add a "Signed-off-by:" line. This isn't necessary for your second patchset only changing a file actually maintained in cygwin-htdocs. - Especially patch 4/4 is questionable. I don't even understand what your summary line means, and the patch looks pretty big. What is it doing? Some explanation and splitting the patch if possible, please?
