Reasons for sending the patch:
1. all at once: the patches are a group of related fixes (as said in the
website).
2. one file per message: I don't know :-P
3. one file per item: it's one fix per patch (as said in the website)

3, as documented on the website, is the preferred method. Otherwise, we wouldn't have documented it as such :)

You mean 5 mails with one patch each? Or one mail with 5 diff files?


Just to be clarify a bit more, a "patch" fixes one thing, or several closely related things. A patch can contain changes to multiple files, when multiple files need to be changed to fix something. After applying a single patch, Wine should be able to be recompiled and run, presumably with whatever was being fixed now working.


In the case of your original email, where there is one attachment for menu size and one for nonclient size, they probably should be sent in separate patches/emails.
