While I don't think that's necessarily wrong, I would like to point
out that the gitweb interface actually does make it fairly easy to
just see the whole patch-set.

IOW, that

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/idmapping.git/log/?h=fs.acl.rework

that Christian pointed to is not a horrible way to see it all. Go to
the top-most commit, and it's easy to follow the parent links.

It's a bit more work to see them in another order, but I find the
easiest way is actually to just follow the parent links to get the
overview of what is going on (reading just the commit messages), and
then after that you "reverse course" and use the browser back button
to just go the other way while looking at the details of the patches.

And I suspect a lot of people are happier *without* large patch-sets
being posted to the mailing lists when most patches aren't necessarily
at all relevant to that mailing list except as context.
