Hey Jeff, The preferred method is for you to use git and committing your changes to your local repo (all commits in git are local) then using `git format-patch` to submit your patches. Using `git format-patch` eliminates the need for busy lead developers from having to enter your author information and writing a commit message in order to merge your patch. I haven't looked at your patches but if you are not aware, kicad has both a coding stype policy[1] and a commit message policy[2]. Following both these will goe a long way to getting you patches merged. The other thing that helps is patience. All of the kicad lead developers are part time, volunteers, or both so they are typically busy and not always able to review patches in as timely a manner as we would like.
