I prefer the attaching text method, to be *sure* the patch is not mangled, but that *anyone* can read it (e.g. I may want to review a patch from a location that does not offer me gzip or whatever the compression scheme de jour is). Also, have you tried adjusting the "Screen Width" settings in "General Preferences" in Yahoo Mail? -- Jeff S

Hi all,
There is something concerning submitting patches that bothers me to no end: inlining vs. attaching them. [skipped]
I have to attach the patches :-( because I use Yahoo online mail client and it wraps long lines. I also usually compress patches with size >= 20-30kb to save everybody's bandwith.
It is good idea to add these recommendations to the Starter's guide, even if we are not going to enforce them.
