A self-contained description is required for the commit in the  
(distributed) Git repository.

http://git.qemu.org/qemu.git/log/

http://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/StartHere
http://git.qemu.org/qemu.git/plain/CODING_STYLE
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/gitworkflows.html#_patch_workflow

It's not too QEMU-specific, so any Git tutorial should do.
