Rather than '--subject-prefix=v2', I prefer using '-v2'. The important part is that you send the mails with 'git send-email' instead of doing it by hand. In fact, you can do 'git send-email --annotate -v2 --cover-letter master' and skip the format-patch altogether, if you are okay saving your cover letter edits to the point where you are sending the mails. > > 2. $git format-patch --subject-prefix=v2 -4 > Then, commit these 4 patch and 0000-cover-letter.patch I'm not sure what you meant by commit. You aren't adding the *.patch files to a repository, but sending them as email. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
