I really should have pointed you to Documentation/SubmittingPatches
when I responded to your email in the first place.  Sorry I didn't
do that.  Looks like you already found it though so good.

Thanks for working on this.  I played around with your patch tonight
and although I use git-gui more often than `git add -i` for hunk
manipulation I really preferred your colorized version of git-add
-i over the non-colorized one.  So I'm looking forward to seeing
the final result of this and getting it into the main tree.

Of course there is also no rush to getting your change in.  We don't
have any sort of release deadlines.  So don't stress out about it
too much.  :)
