In general, I like git-send-email more than sending just pure patch.
With git-send-email we are not deprived of commit message, patch itself
is in the email body making writing of review notes easier. Otherwise
one has to transfer patch from attachment into the body anyway:

e.g. https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-July/msg00147.html

For my disillusionment we have no how-to on this theme on our
libvirt.org site though.
