Honestly I don't know if there is any documentation.

Sending a patch to a mailing list is a way to ask for a
review/evaluation, which works well so I don't see a clear reason why it
should be changed (just that it appears archaic does not seem to be a
good reason).

Only maintainer having their tree on a trusted host can send pull
requests without attaching the patches (we do send pull requests along
with the patches exactly for this reason..).

And actually git also provides many comfortable commands to do that :)
so...! :)
