Git doesn't "commit diffs", which is why this is working (and a frequent source of confusion for people who don't know the architecture of Git). > Neat.

I wouldn't know how to configure repo.or.cz (or any other mirror), but it might be worth asking the maintainers of that site if they would consider adding a global configuration. Customizing the (global) configuation on orgmode.org is at Jasons discretion, I guess. > 2) When reading patches submitted to the mailing list: Here I don't > know the solution.
