Checked in.

Well, one reason for sending changes as patches is compression; however,
another reason is robustness in the face of *other* changes being
applied to the file being changed, e.g. if some other change had been
checked in after you'd done the diff, so even with big changes sending
them out as patches can be a good idea.
