After you 'git clone' you make your changes (ideally in your own branch).
You commit your changes to your local repo
git commit -a -m "description"
Now you generate a patchfile with
git format-patch -1
and send the resulting file to this list.
(Others would use 'git am < file.patch' to apply your patch.)
Here is what I do when someone asks me to amend a patch:
1. make the changes
2. commit them (git commit -a m "blabla")
3. merge the last two commits into one with interactive 'git rebase':
git rebase -i HEAD~2
Your editor will open with two lines beginning with 'pick'.
Change 'pick' of line with 'blabla' to 'f' and save the file.
Of course there are (quite a few) other ways to achieve the same (e.g. you
could undo the last commit with 'git reset').
If you are creating an own branch for each patch your are working on, you
should be pretty clean. You can always checkout master and make a 'git pull'
to get the latest changes from upstream.
You will find good help and many examples (for special problems one might
have) in the internet.
