If you send *.patch at once, git send-email adds an in-reply-to header
to the email which sets up the threading. If you send the patches
1-by-1, this header isn't added, since git send-email doesn't have a
clue what message ID it chose for patch 1. Unless you pass the
--in-reply-to command-line option, that is.
