Patches are submitted via email to the Wine patches mailing
list, <wine-patches@winehq.org>. Your patch
should include:
A meaningful subject (very short description of patch)
A long (paragraph) description of what was wrong and what
is now better. (recommended)
A change log entry (short description of what was
changed).
The patch in "Git" format
To generate a patch using Git, first commit it to your local tree.
Each file that you change needs to be updated with
git update . If you are adding or removing
a file, use git update --add or
git update --remove respectively.
After updating the index, commit the change using
git commit . The commit message will be
sent with your patch, and recored in the ChangeLog.
After committing the patch, you can extract it using
git format-patch and send it to wine-patches
using git imap-send or simply attaching it
to you mail manually.
