BTW, b4 0.7+ can do partial series rerolls. You can just send a single follow-up patch without needing to reroll the whole series, e.g.: [PATCH 1/3] [PATCH 2/3] \- [PATCH v2 2/3] [PATCH 3/3] This is enough for b4 to make a v2 series where only 2/3 is replaced. -K (Yes, I am monitoring all mentions of "b4" on lore.kernel.org/all in a totally non-creepy way, I swear.)
