After weeks of delays, I was notified today that I now have the commit privilege to commit into xorg related components. Prior to this, I published 4 patches related to xf86-video-r128 DDX over at xorg-driver-ati mailing list. I used git-am to apply the patches to my local xf86-video-r128 repository.

git am (“Name of the patch”)

Since I had 4 patches, I repeated the above operation 4 times. Then, I pushed the changes to the upstream repository.

git push

Here is the first of the 4 patches I committed into the xf86-video-r128 DDX upstream repository.
