Checkout Documentation/SubmittingPatches (protip: get "git send-email" working, it will send in the preferred way by default for nearly any open source project using email based workflows.) There are also some resources on the web, how to send patches, although it should be all covered in our Documentation, http://alblue.bandlem.com/2011/12/git-tip-of-week-patches-by-email.html For the patch itself: $ grep -r usage *.c builtin/*.c |wc -l 551 $ grep -r Usage *.c builtin/*.c |wc -l 3 The community agreed (maybe subconciously) to prefer lower case for the 'usage' string, so I don't think this is an improvement.
