OK.

I installed git-email, and followed
https://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#submitting-patches
but my workplace blocks emails that are not sent via Outlook, and my work email
is not on the buldroot mailing list, so I don't think could get it through.

Sending an update with the cc-s suggested.
