P.S.
Some happy git flow

  git checkout master
  git pull
  git checkout -b myfeaturebranch
  # the actual development
  git add  files_worked_on
  git commit
  # further development
  git add  files_worked_on 
  git commit
  git format-patch master
  # now you have patches that can be shared / distributed / emailed
   
At recieving end

  git checkout master
  git checkout -b reviewbranch
  git am  *.patch
  # actual reviewing
  git checkout master
  git rebase reviewbranch

At transmitting end

  git checkout master
  git branch -d myfeaturebranch


At recieving end

  git branch -d reviewbranch


Please note this the happy flow,  reality is more challenging   :-)
