Hi Eric,

I had a look at that - we are happy to use it once and after the 
contribution is accepted.

Once that happens we will re-import the final accepted version on a new 
branch and orphan our old branch(es). From there onwards we can submit 
inline patches generated using git-send-email.

Prior to that it is inappropriate - this tool discloses revision history 
which is prior to the version which has been approved for external 
release. There is no way I can get an approval for that.

I do not quite see the value for an initial contribution as well. We are 
not providing bugfixes or an incremental patch on top of an existing 
qemu feature. We are providing something which is new and self-contained.

Brdgs,

A.
