Right, and in case this is not obvious, you can configure it
permanently per repo with something like:

  $ git config format.subjectprefix "PATCH gnumach"

Thanks Guillem and Sergey! I ended up with a git alias to format patches with the subject prefix as [PATCH <repo>]:

git config --global alias.format-patch-repo '!git format-patch --subject-prefix="PATCH $(basename $(git rev-parse --show-toplevel))"'

Thanks,
Guillem
