We have had non-trivial patches with a number of revisions on the
guix-science channel.

Examples:

https://codeberg.org/guix-science/guix-science/pulls/59
https://codeberg.org/guix-science/guix-science/pulls/75

Thanks for sharing. IMHO these are good examples showing that a forge can offer a better view on the state of the patches:

Under "commits" one gets a patch-based view, under "files" one gets a file-based view — both at the current state of the code. If one is interested in differences to the former attempts, they can compare the revisions. One can also see which comments have been solved and which are still open. This makes it easier to review and to know about the current state of the patch than in an email-based workflow.

I'd never do this with a email-based workflow — as this requires to create a local branch for every revision of the patch series.
