There's no dedicated field for that but I suppose you can put it in the description if you wish. Note however that I expect the maintainer adding a new patch to say it explicitly in the changelog. Of course editing old entries to give the new name of the patch file might be overkill however. > May I use "X-whatever:" for non-standard headers, in the RFC2822 spirit? Sure.
