The patch should be applied as a commit based on v3.20.0.  Then
it can be merged into both the release branch and master.  This
is one of the advantages of distributed version control.  Work
can start from any point in history (even as far back as the
commit that introduced the bug).  No more manual copying of
patches to each branch with the bug :)

Attach it to the bug or post it here.  I can put it in the release
branch for you.

Did you install MSysGit too?  TortoiseGit requires it.  I do not
know off the top of my head whether the installer comes with both.
Git instructions and tutorials are almost all command-line based,
so just MSysGit may be better for learning.  Later you can switch
to TortoiseGit once you understand how to map the concepts.
