OK, I'll add the message

+    if (!(-d ".git")) {
+	warn("$P: .git repository not found.\n");
+	warn("Use a .git repository for better results.\n");
+	warn("ie: git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git\n");
+	return;
+    }

when I submit the patches.

cheers, Joe
