Parts of this should conflict with a patch in -mm from a few weeks ago. then I check and don't see it there.... hrm, wonder what happened to it.
-Separate each logical change into its own patch. +Separate each _logical changes_ into its own patch. change or drop "each" and change "its own patch" to "a single patch file."
On the other hand, if you make a single change to numerous files, -group those changes into a single patch. Thus a single logical change -is contained within a single patch. +group those changes into a single patch. Thus single logical changes +are contained within a single patch.
It's better in the original form.
+Do not send more than 15 patches at once to the vger mailing lists!!!
Only in one place, please.
