Two commits.

For sending more than one patch in a series call `git format-patch` with the option --cover-letter. Please have a look at documentation on `git format-patch` and `git send-email` again.

You can see how it looks if you look out for other patch series on the from the past, especially those with subjects like "[PATCH 0/x] ...". An e-mail client supporting threaded view helps a lot.

Thanks for trying. No need to be sorry, the tools are hard and expectations are high. In the end it's all about efficiency.

Have a nice day
