OK, I guess I'll put the matter to rest then :)

My goal with this subthread was to find a technical solution to
accidental patch mangling by a maintainer; if you think there is no
issue to solve, then there is not much point working on that.

I know that this kind of blunder is pretty much a rounding error in your
overall workflow and I agree that in the grand scheme of things it's not
terribly important.

>From the point of view of a drive-by contributor though (at least this
drive-by contributor), it's a bit disheartening to spend so much time
dotting the i's[1], only for the wrong commit title to show up in the
repository log, and for the commit message to be wholly rewritten.

And since this appears to stem from a technical limitation of our tools
(i.e. M-m failing to handle more than one patch per message) it is
somewhat frustrating that suggested technical solutions[2] are being
brushed aside.


I hope I'm not raising a storm in a teacup over this; as I said, it's
not terribly important on a macro scale.  Sorry for all the noise, and
thank you again for your time!
