This patch series is to remove the hand rolled hashmap in the patch_ids
and use the hashmap.h implementation.  It also introduces the idea of having
a header only patch id so that the contents of the files do not have to be
loaded in order to determine if two commits are different.

Did you do "format-patch --subject-prefix='[PATCH v2]'" or something
like that?

This is my fault, sorry, I suggested this usage (misremembering the
semantics because I only use my mail-patch-series.sh helper and never use
format-patch manually anymore).

    git format-patch --subject-prefix='PATCH v2'

or even better

    git format-patch -v2

would have been more appropriate.

Oooh, I did not know about the latter form. Nice.

Thanks,
Dscho
