the simplest way to add a file to my git repo and submit as a patch?

["Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  what's the easiest way to submit a patch that represents adding a
new file to my git repo?  i'm fairly sure it involves "git add" and
"git commit".  i just want to be able to physically add the file, then
somehow commit it so it shows up with "git diff", submit that output
as a patch, then remove the file and any reference to it and get back
to where i started.

  what's the recipe?  thanks.
