• check out the correct branch
  • git checkout -b branch_name
• make a patch file
  • git diff trunk... > a.patch

• apply the patch
  • patch git apply path_to_patch

• Please make sure you run the tests are your machine as a final check before you commit using 
     mvn clean test.
      
     In case the mvn clean test is failing please do not commit. File a JIRA and ping the person who has committed the last patch on the branch you are committing to and politely ask him to revert. The committer responsible for the broken build can either choose to fix or revert the patch. This is quite important since broken unit tests can cause a lot of churn and confusion for other developers. Its best to keep the trunk/builds healthy.
