I do not think -s does what you want.  It means "do not generate
diff" to the diff family, but format-patch overrides it and
forces generating patch+stat output, so you do not see what it
is doing.


Sorry, I was fooled by git-format-patch.txt documentation.

This is a real regression; I was hoping Porcelain writers were
paying attention of what are coming, but obviously the
description in "What's in git.git" messages and discussion on
the list were not detailed enough.  My apologies.


Sorry also for this, normally I read "What's in git.git" but perhaps I
missed this.



As an easy alternative, we could give --start-number=<n> to
format-patch so that you can do the iteration yourself instead
of having format-patch to iterate over the list.



You beat me for few minutes ;-)
