Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send +the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current +branch, type: + + git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org + +Mailing list: + + http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/bitbake-devel + +Source code: + + http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/ |
