I personally (and I think this is the general LKML behaviour) use in-reply-to
when I post a single patch that is a fix for a bug, or a small enhancement,
discussed on some thread. It works well as it fits the conversation inline.
But for anything that requires significant changes, namely a patchset,
and that includes a new version of such patchset, it's usually better
to create a new thread. Otherwise the thread becomes an infinite mess and it
eventually expands further the mail client columns.
Agreed, although for single patches I use my regular mailer (mutt) and
can't be arsed with tools.
Yeah me too, otherwise I can't write a text before the patch changelog.
Also I don't actually use git-send-email ever, so I might be biased.
Ah it's just too convenient so I wrote my scripts on top of it :-)
But surely many mail sender libraries can post patches just fine as well.
