The problem is that you did not commit your changes. All commits are
local to your repository and git format-patch generates patch from the
commits.

Alternatively you can also publish your repository
(see
http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/Devel:Git#Publishing_changes_for_merge)
and provide link to it in patch tracker.

Create full patch which will work, so you need to include any needed
libraries.
