Ah ok, yes I have seen the message from git send-email but wasn't sure how to use this. So if I get a request to update 4/5 from a already posted patch serie which message id I have to enter for "In-Reply-To for the first email"? I assume I have to use the message id from the initial 4/5 Patch Email which has hit the mailing list or? >> E.g patch serie where only 1 patch has changes requested, do I need to update >> all other patches with the history: >> >> "Changes for v2: - nothing" > > No. Please don't repost the unchanged patches at all.
