+
+;;; Commentary:
+
+;; This file has two symmetrical usage modes, for patch creation and
+;; application, respectively.  The details are somewhat tuned for Guile
+;; maintenance; probably we should generalize it a bit and add it to
+;; Emacs proper at some point in the future.  Long live free software!
+;;
+;; On the patch creation side of things, there are various version
+;; control systems that are happy to write a diff to stdout (and
+;; numerous Emacs interfaces to them all).  Thus, we provide only a
+;; simple `patch-submit' that composes mail from the current buffer;
+;; the contents of that buffer are left as an exercise for the patch
+;; creator.  When preparing the mail, `patch-submit' scans the patch
+;; for standard filename headers and sets up a skeleton change log --
+;; filling this in is a good way to earn respect from maintainers (hint
+;; hint).  Type `C-c C-c' to send the mail when you are done.  (See
+;; `compose-mail' for more info.)
+;;
+;; TODO: Write/document patch-apply side of things.
+;; TODO: Integrate w/ `ediff-patch-buffer' et al.
