Well, other complain that they don't care about the other 20 patches
just because one patch affects them. And they can look it up if needed
so you can't make everyone happy.

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/b4/b4.git

It is a tool written by Konstantin which can grab a whole series giving
the message-id of one patch in series, save the series as mbox, patch
series and collect all the tags (like replies with acked/tested/…-by)
and fold those tags it into the right patches.
