Let's just split the patch.  If you intend to sign the assignment for
"past and future changes" the usual procedure is to wait until this is
on file and then to simply commit the changes under your name.  I don't
think that

    [Which files have you changed so far, and which new files have you written
    so far?]

means that you have to describe those changes beforehand (but I could be
wrong).
