I think it's fine to put them in sequence when there's a textual dependency. If it turns out that one of them needs more discussion and we don't want it to hold later patches hostage, we can always re-roll at that point. (I also think it's fine to lump together thematically similar patches even when they aren't strictly dependent, even textually. It's less work for the maintainer to consider 1 group of 10 than 10 groups of 1). > These patches were driven by the needs of git-repo-filter[1], but most > if not all of them should be independently useful. I left lots of comments. Some of the earlier ones may just be showing my confusion about fast-export works (some of which was cleared up by your later patches). But I like the overall direction for sure. -Peff
