From: Jacob Keller <jacob.keller@xxxxxxxxx> Change the default behavior of git-format-patch to generate numbered sequence of 0/1 and 1/1 when generating both a cover-letter and a single patch. This standardizes the cover letter to have 0/N which helps distinguish the cover letter from the patch itself. Since the behavior is easily changed via configuration as well as the use of -n and -N this should be acceptable default behavior.
