Victor, could you please split your patches out into small, easy to commit sections please? Using git means we can do small commits which makes it easy to revert a patches, or use git-bisect to find a regression. It also means it makes life easier for you as you can commit locally in little steps and then use git-format-patch to create the patches for the mailing list. When I've had to do this in the past I've found it's easiest to have two source trees in the PWD, one pm-utils.new (with changes) and one pm-utils.git. Create and checkout a branch "mywork" in pm-utils.git. I then use meld to push over the changes in little chunks, and then commit the changes every time you've finished a small patch commit into pm-utils.git with a sensible commit message. When you have done all the changes in pm-utils.git and there are no more changes to be made, you can generate all the patch files and send them to the list. Sorry to be difficult.
