Thanks for your contribution! However, as Mike Zick said, and as explained in the Buildroot manual, patches should be submitted inline. The 'git send-email' tool does that for you. > One thing though. Have you ever considered migrating to GitHub ? > Submitting patches via email is, in my opinion, extremely inefficient and can lead to human errors. Which human errors? If you use 'git send-email', there is no problem at all, and sending patches just requires one command. Submitting patches on a mailing list allows people to easily review them, discuss comments. Buildroot is by far not the only community to do this. Other major communities in the embedded Linux space do the same: the kernel, U-Boot, Barebox and others.
