Hi,
I've read some chapters of the pro-git and it is a good resource. The
missing step was "git format-patch origin/master". Couldn't find it in
Google but on pro-git book it was there.. Only had to understand it
throughly, but the book is good!
As I said, I had trouble interpretating {foocommitjobbie}. Although
English is not my native language, I'm quite acquainted with it. Of git,
I knew nothing, now I know more.. :)
Ah, the submission report with the results of git-format-patch is here:

Thanks for you answers, suggestions and links,
João Ventura
