By the way, I notice that the threading between your patches and cover
letter are broken. Since I see you are also working on a tool for
handling such things, I'd suspect the tool (or your workflow) has a bug.
:)

The message-id of this message is:

  <20160730191104.2ps5k7eji7aqgufg@x>

but the patches have both "References" and "In-Reply-To" set to:

  <cover.4d006cadf197f80d899ad7d7d56d8ba41f574adf.1469905775.git-series.josh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I also see your MUA is mutt, and I think I saw you mention using "mutt
-H" elsewhere. IIRC, when I started using a similar workflow years ago,
I tried the same thing and had the same problem: "-H" treats the input
file as a template, not a message, and thus generates a new message-id.

I switched to using mutt's internal "resend-message" function, which
does a more literal re-send. I don't think I ever found a way to
convince mutt to do a resend from the command line.
