In essnse previous patch fixes something and introduces new problem which is subsequently fixed by this patch. The way I see it if both patches are squashed the change log should be : "I do [explanation of the first change]. However this introduces [explain bug from patch 2] so fix it by [explain fix from 2nd patch]" > > Possibly, if the fix can be applied first and then the overall logic > changed, that's still 2 patches but there's no intermediate state with > the bug.
