I'm probably stepping on some toes here, but is it really necessary to
post raw patches to this list? They do rather clog up one's inbox.
What's wrong with git?

It depends what your patches are for. If you're working on a specific
subsystem, it might also suffice sending the patches to the appropriate
mailing list for that subsystem.
Just make sure to always Cc: the maintainers of the bits you're patching,
and check the file MAINTAINERS in your Linux tree. Also read up
Documentation/SubmittingPatches for general information.

Nothing's wrong with git. It's just that sending patches to a mailing list makes
it easier for people to comment on them.
