Hi,
thanks for your input.
How to use Git on Windows? I suppose there is no (good) command line. Are there graphical tools that support sending emails?

Hello, I have also tried to do couple "first bugs" and failed to send them in using Larsen cheat sheet. He tried to help me twice, but no luck.
It just takes longer to send in patches then it is to deal with a bug. Unleast for us on Windows. I do it in my own time, as do you, so I dont have too much time to waste.
I would recomend a youtube tutorial to get started, I think its easiest to select an easy bug and record sending proccess. Windows setup would be great, but I can manage in Linux as virtual machine.

I find this process with "git send-email" very easy and I am not sure where the problems could be.
I am using TortoiseGit with Windows 7. I don't know if this tool supports "git send-email" and I wouldn't want to use command line git (it is annoying to use more than one tool for the same job, IMHO). Therefore, I create a patch file using TortoiseGit (I need a workflow reminder for this to get it right), then send the contents with Thunderbird where I have to remember to disable line wrap (also using a workflow reminder text).
In other projects (using Github), IMHO it is much easier to push to one's own repository and create a merge request to the upstream repository.
Discussion can take place with that merge request.
In case you are open to using other tools in place of Patchwork, what
about Gitlab?
