Looks like it was a black hole of confusions. I'll have a quick look (via my account) to see if I can see what happened.

I found that it had created a `Patch-N` branch in a fork of the repo in my account (It appears I had one from a previous contribution). Having found that Patch branch I have (again) asked for a PR which it says is https://github.com/git/git.github.io/pull/523 Hopefully it works this time ;-) P.
