I have two personal preferences on this:

1.

  o git format-patch HEAD~N -> creates a series of patch files
  o attach the single patch files to a mail

2.

  o create a public git repos with a branch containing your patches (master
    branch should be a copy of our master)
  o send me a pull request by mail


On sending mails with patches...

Most convenient for me it will be to send patches to the X2Go BTS (bug  
tracker system).

Mail Template...

"""
From: <you>
To: submit at bugs.x2go.org
Subject: <describe your patch>

Source: <name of X2Go source project, see our Git repos for the project names>
Version: <some of the latest tags or HEAD or a package version>
Severity: {wishlist,minor,normal,important,serious,grave,critical}
Tags: patch

<describe your issue in detail here>

"""

Attach the patch file(s) to this mail.

Greets,
Mike
