Here is a message from git send-email.

To get here, I used:

$ git commit -a
Created commit cb85f54: Disable rawhide.
1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)

$ git format-patch HEAD^
0001-Disable-rawhide.patch

$ git send-email --compose --to Fedora-infrastructure-list@redhat.com 0001-Disable-rawhide.patch

Note that if it's a single patch, --compose is probably overkill as it
makes two messages rather than one. Your commit message is
self-explanatory, no? (... and if not, edit the 0001 file before
running git send-email)

For bonus points, the --subject-prefix option to git format-patch can
be used to change the prefix from [PATCH] to [Change Request]:

git format-patch --subject-prefix='Change Request' ... | git send-email

(An alias in git could make this quite convenient.)

Commentary could be added between the --- and the diffstat, as is
common on the git and kernel lists for patches.
