I forgot to reply, sorry.  I'm still irritated why you don't just
simply send the patches as a git patch series.  Create the set with
git format-patch and send it to the newlib list with git send-email.
No problems with patch size and mailbox limits and especially no
external ZIP fgile nobody ever reviews.
