(first message using git send-email, hopefully I followed the instructions correctly)

You messed up the thread (you broke it).

Curious. The thread overview "5+ messages" at https://lore.kernel.org/git/20221025015116.4730-1-mirth.hickford@gmail.com/#related (local) looks okay to me. I followed the git send-email instructions setting the In-Reply-To header. I changed the subject -- maybe that confused some clients? Thanks for the tips.
