1 This extension tries to make it easy to send inlined patches\r
2 \r
3 In many projects (most notably, the Linux kernel project), it is considered\r
4 polite to send your patches inline so that you do not have to\r
5 switch/upgrade your mailer to respond to the (quoted) patch.\r
6 \r
7 At the same time, the patch should be applicable, which means that it must\r
8 not be transformed, as is the case when using the flowed format (that some\r
9 consider to be a misspelt "flawed").\r
10 \r
11 Default settings in Thunderbird make it hard to send patches that way.\r
12 \r
13 This is where ThunderGit comes to the rescue. Just select the\r
14 menu item "Send Patch(es)..." in the "File" menu, open your patch and\r
15 send it. If the file contains mail headers, that is fine.\r
