bitbucket certainly lets you maintain a patch as a queue rather than
as a separate clone. I ran across it in the context of the Py3k port
of the PEP 380 patch:
https://bitbucket.org/rndblnch/cpython-pep380/overview

I don't have the personal experience to say how easy patch queues are
to share in general (if nothing else, they're designed to be easy to
export and import as ordinary patches for distribution that way).

Cheers,
Nick.
