That basically worked for me but with one minor exception.  I don't
know why, but when I downloaded the batches from Bugzilla, the ones
that Joanie worked on, didn't have any mail headers attached so
'git-am did not work for me.  Instead, I had to usse git-apply in much
the same way and that all worked for me.  Now when I created a patch
with git-format-patch, it included the commit e-mail header
information and if I download that patch from Bugzilla, git-am will
work with that one.  Is there a difference between how I create
patches and the ones that are being posted to Bugzilla by others?
