Which patches weren't applying properly?

Hmmm, I don't think my workflow uses your topic branches properly. I've been range-diffing against the previously submitted patchsets but it seems like you expect a range-diff against the actual topic branch. What should the ideal workflow be? I've been avoiding working directly from the topic branch since that would require me to manually remove your SOB line whenever I generate new patchsets. I guess I could manually remove your SOB line from each patch manually. I dunno. Any ideas? Thanks, Denton
