If you made this the first patch, you would only need to modify one place.

This is a patch series. If the end result is going to be maxdepth 1,
you shouldn't add a bunch of maxdepth 2 and then in the next patch make
them all maxdepth 1 as the only change.

Just change the one maxdepth 1 first, and then you can update the code
with the new maxdepth of 1.

Hi Steven,

Got it. If I understand correctly, you’re suggesting that I reorder the patches so that the 'maxdepth' change happens first. That way, I won’t introduce maxdepth: 2 only to change it in the next patch. Does that sound right?
