The --reroll-count=$N option, when given a positive integer:

 - Adds " v$N" to the subject prefix specified.  As the default
   subject prefix string is "PATCH", --reroll-count=2 makes it
   "PATCH v2".

 - Prefixes "v$N-" to the names used for output files.  The cover
   letter, whose name is usually 0000-cover-letter.patch, becomes
   v2-0000-cover-letter.patch when given --reroll-count=2.
On the same subject of format-patch improvements, perhaps we should also:

   - Keep subject line in branch.%s.description too. No point in
     keeping writing the subject on every reroll.

   - Perhaps an option to save the current tip in reflog with reroll
     count so one can easily diff between two rerolls.
