i'll check.

i'm very much in favour of not cluttering sources with any editor 'configs'.

apart from the emacs thing, i will. i'm too tired already now though,
i'll do it tomorrow when i'm 'fresh' again :)

usually, what people do is that they create one branch for one (group of
similar) fix(es). but i personally don't care much. if your stuff is
clear (rebased on top of current debian-next[0]), i don't care on what
brach the commits are and you can just ask for commits (or branches, if
you have more than one, or if the branch names are not self-explaining)
to be pulled.

[0] your commits appear to be ontop of debian, but that doesn't matter,
    for now. in future, please always work ontop of debian-next branch.
