I'm worried that this can get unwieldy for series of 50 patches where 49
got applied. Would the following be better:
-----
From: ...
To: ...
Subject: Re: [PATCH 00/18] use semicolons...
On Sun...

A subset of these patches was applied to
https://...
Thanks!
[5/18] regmap: debugfs:
commit:
(etc)
-----
In other words, we:
- specifically say that it's a subset
- instead of just enumerating the number of patches that were applied,
as is currently the case ([1/1]) we list the exact numbers out of the
posted series (e.g. [5/18])
I think this is a better solution than potentially flooding everyone
with 49 emails.
