What if you added the diff as an attachment to the email?

Hi,

I had the same problem. I used git to generate a patch file, and then
sent it in, and the email was much too long to be accepted, so I am
interested in how to do this as well.

I believe Git practice is if you can describe your change in 50 characters
or less, it’s fine as a single patch. If not, split it up. If you have the
former case–patch that makes sense as a single file but still too big for
email–then you can (1) file a bug report and attach the patch to that, or
(2) have a public Git repo on e.g. GitHub and email the list asking devs to
pull your changes.
