Yup, let's queue it at the tip of (and as a part of) the base series with a bit of explanation. How does this look?

Subject: [PATCH] protocol.h: move definition of DEFAULT_GIT_PORT from cache.h

Michael J Gruber noticed that connection via the git:// protocol no longer worked after a recent header clean-up. This was caused by funny interaction of few gotchas. First, a necessary definition

	#define DEFAULT_GIT_PORT 9418
was made invisible to a place where
	const char *port = STR(DEFAULT_GIT_PORT);

was expecting to turn the integer into "9418" with a clever STR() macro, and ended up stringifying it to

	const char *port = "DEFAULT_GIT_PORT";
without giving any chance to compilers to notice such a mistake.
