Read this:

http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Using_Git_for_Samba_Development

ie (not tested, sorry, but let me know if you have trouble):
$ git config --global user.email Your.Email at domain.com
$ git config --global user.name "Your Real Name"
$ git clone git://git.samba.org/samba.git samba
$ cd samba
$ git checkout -b oliver-master-devel origin/master
$ git add <list of files you have touched>
$ git commit 
$ git format-patch -1 

(where -1 means the last patch, use say -2 if you have done two commits)

When you want to sync up to the current tree, run:
$ git rebase origin/master

The critical points are to set your e-mail addr, to commit the patches
and to use git format-patch.
