Yep, that makes sense.

It isn't as hard as it might seem:-) For general reference, if anyone 
else is wondering about a easy way to make some quick fixes for libvirt
in GIT, this is a 30 second overview avoiding all the hard bits of GIT...

 0. Set your name & email in GIT if not already done

    # git config --global user.name "Daniel Berrange"
    # git config --global user.email "berrange at redhat.com"

 1. Get a local checkout

    # git checkout git://libvirt.org/libvirt.git

 2. Create a branch 'misc-fixes' (or whatever name you like) where 
    you'll make your change(s)

    # cd libvirt
    # git checkout -b misc-fixes

 3. Make your changes...

      emacs blah.c foo.c

 4. Commit the changed files

     git add blah.c foo.c
     git commit

 5. Repeat steps 3 & 4 several times if desired to make a series of changes

 6. Send us the change(s)...

  a) Either format all changes on the branch as patches

     git format-patch master..misc-fixes
     ...manually email the patch files created...

  b) Or email the branch directly from git

     git send-email -c libvir-list at redhat.com master..misc-fixes


Regards,
Daniel
