If you want me to add it to that branch (which is where it should go), 
then why aren't the patches against that branch? I get rejects on 
several of the patches, mainly because they are not done on top of this 
particular branch.

We can do two things here. I can skip patches, I don't like doing that. 
Or you can respin against the proper branch, as it should have been from 
the beginning. What do you want to do?
