Ok - http://cyrus.brong.fastmail.fm/ now contains a copy of 
the diffs between the "master" and "fastmail" branches on
github (I have to run a script by hand though, it's not
automatically updating at the moment...)

Diff file format has changed somewhat, since they're generated
with git-format-patch rather than quilt!

Warning - there's some funky shit in there.  In reality we're only
running this on about 1.5% of our users - but we'll be rolling it
out to the rest of them probably tomorrow.  It's exciting times in
there - LOTS of changes!  Also advance warning that I do rebase
this tree quite frequently, reordering and reworking patches.  The
files may change over time...

That said, Enjoy!

Bron ( who will hopefully stabilise things a bit more soon - have to
       start looking at some sysadmin tasks that have been backing
       up.  I'm not really a _full_time_ Cyrus programmer ;)
