The problem is review. With e-mail I can just hit reply and comment on = your patch. Did your try the SMTP interface to gmail? I think e-mailing inli= ned patches is a nearly perfect. Inline-attachment is ok with me. That makes it possib= le to comment on them like any email in my mail program. > I've been incrementally committing to my local git copy.

Often, after a long session, you end up with a "mess" of commits, many = which don't make sense to anyone but you. For this you use rebase -i to clean= up. It allows you to reorder, squash and edit commits. You'll end up with a= n entirely new version of your branch. Retest to make sure it's ok and submit.=20 -- robin
