[PATCH 1/2] format-patch: document and test --reroll-count
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
---
* This comes on top of the 7 patches that have been cooking on 'pu'
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/212036),
and I am planning to squash this to 7/7 that adds --reroll-count
option to the code. This is sent as a separate patch to keep
reviewing easier.

+--reroll-count=<n>::
+ Mark the series as the <n>-th iteration of the topic. The
+ output filenames have `v<n>` pretended to them, and the
+ subject prefix ("PATCH" by default, but configurable via the
+ `--subject-prefix` option) has ` v<n>` appended to it. E.g.
+ `--reroll-count=4` may produce `v4-0001-add-makefile.patch`

--to=<email>::
Add a `To:` header to the email headers. This is in addition
to any configured headers, and may be used multiple times.
