When your shell expands the "patches/*" glob, it will do so in lexically sorted order. Meaning "0001" comes before "0002", etc, which is the reason that format-patch zero-pads the filenames. You can edit or delete the patches in your patch directory before applying, and they should apply the same (unless you create a patch that cannot actually be applied). -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
