Here is what I do:
1. commit your changes to your local copy of the org-mode repository
2. run the following command to wrap up the latest commit on your
local copy of the repository into a file which can be attached
to email messages
git format-patch -o ~/temp/ HEAD~1
after the command finished you will notice a new file in ~/temp
with a name like 0001-commit-message-stuff.patch
hth,
Tom
