As I have explained in the other answer, I have tried this with: https://issues.apache.org/bloodhound/ticket/694 But it was a bit difficult to manage as soon as you are 2 collaborating on the same patches. >> For instance, I saw that Olemis is using Bitbucket and mercurial-mq a >> lot, so I decided to invest a little time to learn it to try his >> patches.

No problem, hg-git is working perfectly for me and I can directly pull the changes from github. It is just that I needed mercurial to be able to test Olemis patches in is mercurial-mq. Using mercurial-mq seems to be quite nice from what I have seen to manage/maintain patches. I have no experience with Github pull request, but I understand that the principle is more or less the same. So if diff/patches are not working for some specific ticket, are we allowed to submit patches through Github pull request ? Thanks !
