''Patches should be sent to our mptcp-dev Mailing-List. You must respect the submission guidelines of the Linux Kernel. To create and send the git-patch follow this tutorial:''

After having locally committed your work, you can create the patch with the following command:

  @@git format-patch -s -1@@

If you want to send multiple patches (if they all handle the same feature/issue in the code):

  @@git format-patch -s -X --cover-letter -o patches@@
(X == number of patches you want to take) Then, in patches/0000-cover-letter.patch you can edit the "global" message for the patch-series.

(see @@man git-format-patch@@ for further instructions)

To then send the patch to the mailing-list, you can use "git send-email"

  @@git send-email --to=mptcp-dev@listes.uclouvain.be [name of the patch or directory]@@

See  [[https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GitTips#Mail]] for information on how to configure git send-email.
