(Added line for what the patch fixes)
Line 14:
 
# Before creating the patch, update the master branch of your local repository checkout, and make sure your commits apply cleanly on top of master. In git, you can achieve this by developing on a branch and rebasing your branch commits on top of master.
# Generate the patch set for your changes. Our preferred patch submission form is a patch series generated with "git format-patch". Read about [[How to generate patches with git format-patch]]. Add on a line of its own, at the bottom of the commit, what the patch fixes. For example: "Closes: http://openhatch.org/bugs/issue398"
