A separate question (for anyone), when we get that far ... what's the best way to apply/commit a patch series like this? Sorry for my lack of git-fu. When I run "git am mboxfile" after saving your msg in mboxfile, it applies fine, but then git log -n 1 -p shows that only the first Subject: is used, apparently losing the information you nicely put into all the other Subject:s.
A quick check of `git help log` suggests that you were asking `git log` to only output one record. That it outputs the first Subject and not the last suggests that git-am may have only applied one patch instead of the whole series.
Or will all the different subjects show up again when it's pushed, somehow?
No, a push exactly transfers your local history and branch tip.
I did a bunch of searching without great results. Maybe I have to save each msg in a separate file and then apply the directory?
I seem to recall that that is what I have always had to do: one message per file.
Seems like that should not be necessary.
I suspect that you are having problems with git-mailsplit but I do not know how to fix the issue.
