The way I will show here is to gather up your changes in a so-called
"bundle", which can then be sent by mail or attached in a bug-tracker.
First, some terms that might need explaining.

Many open-source projects that use git use patches generated by the format-patch command. Just type "git format-patch origin". Unless you have a LOT of commits, patches are better than binary bundles, because they are still human-readable (they contain the diff), and they also preserve the metadata (unlike diffs).

You can even have git e-mail these patches to the project's mailing list. The second and following patches are sent as a "reply" to the first patch, so they don't clutter the list when viewed in threading mode.
