To put this into the perspective of existing practices: consider 
java-gnome's hacking how-to document:
http://java-gnome.sourceforge.net/4.0/HACKING.html

Contributors are recommended to have a checkout of their mainline and 
then have their own working branch. Currently, contributors are told to 
create patches to be sent to the maintainers using something along the 
lines of:
bzr bundle ../mainline > /tmp/name-that-tune.patch

Would I be correct to say that the only change needed to this document 
with respect to this recommendation would be to recommend:
bzr send ../mainline --output=/tmp/name-that-tune.patch
or
bzr send ../mainline -o /tmp/name-that-tune.patch
instead?

Thanks,
Eugene Wee
