[RFC] request-pull with diff body itself

[Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com>]

Here is rfc in a sake of having ability to produce
diff body in small series of changes in request-pull.
we could use ">>" here and append diff by hands but
adding "-p" option seems more comfortable.

Dunno, just a thought.

Please CC me, I'm not subscribed.

[RFC] request-pull -- produce long diff if needed

Allow git request-pull to append diff body into
pull request. It's really useful for small series
of commits.

This is just an RFC -- so if you don't like it feel
free to just drop. I found useful to have an ability
to pass additional "-p" option and have diff body in
request.
