I did this:

git format-patch -s HEAD^

it produced this file:

0001-Document-check-option-to-git-diff.patch

which looks to be formatted as a mail message:

Do I optionally edit this file, putting my comments before the
"Signed-off-by" line, and then just send this off to the list with my
mail command, i.e.:

% mail git@vger.kernel.org < 0001-Document-check-option-to-git-diff.patch

?
