About a year ago, I changed 8000+ lines of text in edk2 to fix various typo=
s.
But I didn't split it all and I didn't create a hundred of patches by emai=
l to get it all applied (except for a few folders of them).

As it's still a lot of work to rebase it, split it, patch it and get it re=
viewed, I wanted to make it easier for me, so I made a few branches and pul=
l requested those on GitHub:
- https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/pull/143
- https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/pull/144 ( https://github.com/tianocor=
e/edk2/pull/143 )
- https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-libc/pull/1

With branches & pull-requests, I can immediately detect conflicts when the=
 branch is out-of-sync with master, immediately rebase and more.
With patches... well, they get LOST: try to find my unmerged patches from =
February 2019 for instance...

So those pulls are an experiment with low priority. I can change the licen=
ce if needed (I don't even need attribution, I just want to help), or I can=
 perform other changes, but I would be much pleased if such experiment beco=
mes conclusive.

Thank you
