The introduction email is good sometimes, but now try to include
all the necessary info to explain what the patch does in the
commit's revision log. There are two advantages to this:
  1. It makes archeology a lot easier, since the information
     is right there;
  2. It makes it easier for you to contribute the patch, since
     all you have to do is git-email it.

Introduction emails are useful sometimes when you want to provide
some general context that doesn't really belong in the revision
log of any of the patches. The idea is that we should be able to
have all necessary info for a given commit just by looking at
that commit.

Remember to Cc: me when you resubmit - it'll help me remember
I promised to review your patches this weekend.
