Me guesses that Junio (who gets loads of patches) would be happy if you do:

1) Squash these changes down to one single commit
2) Run git format-patch -1
3) Send it to the list either with git send-email, or otherwise send
the 0001-<your-commit-summary>.patch to the list directly if your
mailer supports it.

The reason is simply that the maintainer can simply use git am
<your-raw-mail-message-file> to commit it, instead of having to
manually sift through the emails.

Otherwise, this is nice work. Thanks.
