Patches should be sent using git send-email. That way other
developers can use the usual workflow for saving the patch and applying
it to git. But if the only thing missing is a sign-off, it can be
supplied separately in a non-patch human-readable e-mail.

As for threading, another version of a patch or a patch series should
be a separate thread, as the command on our HACKING page does.
