Apologies Greg, I didn't mean to waste your time.

I've used this command to generate the patch, in order not to include
the entire file contents that have been deleted:

git format-patch -D <to-list> <patches>

I also assumed RESEND was commonly used for the purpose of resending
patches. Is this not the case?

Cheers,

Mark
