I'm always confused why we need this and not having this squashed into
patch 1 (or say, never have these lines).

The only thing it matters is when someone backports patch 1 but not
backport the rest of the patches.  But that's really, really weird already
as a backporter doing that, and I doubt its happening.

Neither should we merge patch 1 without merging follow up patches to
master, as we should just always merge the whole feature or just keep
reworking on the list.

I'd like to know if I missed something else..

There are also git bisect considerations.
This practice is useful for git bisect for features that are enabled by default, so you won't mistakenly run "half a feature" if you do bisect. But here the capability must be manually enabled, so maybe it's not that useful in this case.

I like it for the sake of good order, so this capability can't be enabled before it's fully implemented (even if it's unlikely that someone would do that).


PS: sorry to be late on replying to your email for previous version due to
travelling last week, I'll reply to your series instead.  Actually I was
just writting up the reply to your previous version when receiving this
one. :)

No worries, thanks :)
