Could you explain how your repository is organized?  I would think
you'd cloned the upstream git repository[1] and created a branch of
your own where you maintain a stack of patches using quilt[2] or
StGit[3]?  This technique allows you to make your patches available to
anyone who wants them, even before you submit them to the FSF.  (The
Debian patches are similarly maintained in a monotone repository,
using quilt.)
