    I can easily "pull" git trees. I do my own work in git, but usually
    not in a way that would be useful for pushing upstream (see my trees
    at git.kernel.org).

    I *could* add my dream trees to those that are mirrored at kernel.org,
    when things settle a bit. (Should I?)

    But I'd really prefer to push my stuff using plain old patches in
    emails.
