What I'll generally do is to topologically sort the patches. Work out what patch each of the new patches fix and then rename the patches to name-of-the-patch-whcih-is-being-fixed-fix.patch. So if you had foo.patch bar.patch and then sent be "[patch] frob the nozzle" I'd work out that this new patch is fixing foo.patch and I'd name it "foo-fix.patch" and the sequence would become: foo.patch foo-fix.patch bar.patch and then at some time in the future I'll collapse foo-fix.patch, foo-fix-fix.patch, etc into foo.patch. Of course it doesn't always work out that simply ;) In this case it's not clear that a tsort will work out right. I'll take a look. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
