Usually this means that the cover letter of v2 is sent as a reply to the cover letter of v1, etc. Add a new config option for 'b4 send', 'send-same-thread', defaulting to False, and read its value in get_prep_branch_as_patches. When True, add an 'In-Reply-To' header to the first mail in the series, referencing the Message-ID of the previous iterations's cover letter. Signed-off-by: Philippe Blain --- Changes in v2: - removed the command-line flag and kept only the config, as suggested by Konstantin - Link to v1: https://msgid.link/20230219-send-iterations-in-same-thread-v1-0-59b802382eb5@gmail.com v1: Sending a new iteration of a series in the same thread as the previous one is the preferred workflow on some lists, the Git mailing list being an example [1]. This series allows that workflow in b4 by adding a '--same-thread' option to 'b4 send', with an associated config option. Cheers, Philippe.
