``git format-patch`` to produce patches suitable to post to
the mailing list.

To contribute patches:
#. Fork the upstream `CMake Repository`_ into a personal account.
#. Base all new work on the upstream ``master`` branch.
#. Create commits making incremental, distinct, logically complete changes.
#. Push a topic branch to a personal repository fork on GitLab.
#. Create a GitLab Merge Request targeting the upstream ``master`` branch.
