With this you generally open a new issue (or multiple issues) and with
each issue have a patch at the ready.  It's up to you to decide how fine
grained you want it to be.  But generally smaller patches are better
(they are easier to review).

If you can I would suggest trying to make the changes incremental and
submitting them over a period of time, with newer patches building on
the older ones.  Open them in separate issues, you can reference the
older issue number in the new issue (e.g. Building on #123456 this
patch...).  It depends on the code in question (sometimes this just
isn't possible), but generally smaller is better.

Best,
