There's no standard to state the dependency, right? No there is no standard to state the dependency. We need one. Actually, there are 3 kinds of dependencies: - a well know dependency when sending a patch - implicit dependency on the HEAD (can fail if a conflicting patch is pushed) - dependency on a specific tree (next-*) I suggest using: Depends-on: pw | Examples: Depends-on: pw 33000 Depends-on: master 3643b0f Depends-on: next-net f33e00 It won't work well when a patch depends on a pending patch series because the cover letter has no patchwork identifier. It will be solved with the next version of patchwork (in few months). In the meantime, we can point to the first patch of the series. Comments/ideas?
