Luckily there is, quote from man git-format-patch:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-v <n>, --reroll-count=<n>
Mark the series as the <n>-th iteration of the topic. The output
filenames have v<n> prepended to them, and the subject prefix
("PATCH" by default, but configurable via the --subject-prefix
option) has ` v<n>` appended to it. E.g. --reroll-count=4 may
produce v4-0001-add-makefile.patch file that has "Subject: [PATCH v4
1/20] Add makefile" in it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wasn't aware of that until recently I found as an usage example posted
on some internet forum and was really surprised it an option :-)
