Thanks once again for the informative review! (I've learned something new about git, which isn't really surprising I supposed, since I currently know so little ;-))
One of the things I love about open source is that everyone learns from each other.
Likewise, a subject line of "[PATCHv2] Fix..." is better than "[PATCH] Take Two - Fix...", since git am strips "[PATCH...]" but not "Take Two".
Can git send-email be made to put that in the subject line rather than just [PATCH] or [PATCH n/m]? That would be really useful!
'git send-email' takes any argument that 'git format-patch' does; the latter is documented as supporting --subject-prefix. So: git send-email -2 --subject-prefix=PATCHv2 sends the last two commits, using [PATCHv2 1/2] as the subject line leader. -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
