Sending patches

Sending patches

Hi!

I have gone through the tutorial for sending the first patch and even made
changes to a file with warnings generated using checkpatch.pl . The only
thing I'm having trouble with is mutt. My university firewall has blocked
the ports 587 & 465 and hence mutt always gives me the error Network
Unreachable. Is there any other way I can send a patch? Or any work around
to the external firewall blocking me?

Thanks!
Gargi

It may be more useful for you to use git send-email:

Hope this helps
