Re: [PATCH 3/2] format-patch: use clear_commit_marks() instead of some adhocery

git-format-patch is rather broken on pu right now (pre these patches). In my test git repo, git-format-patch.sh called with 2 parameters, like

  git-format-patch <remotehead> <myhead>

when HEAD != myhead does the right thing, but git format-patch doesn't, it seems to be messing up and not finding the merge base correctly:

  0001-Initial-revision-of-git-the-information-manager-from-hell.txt

And it errors out with ignore-if-in-upstream:

  $ ./git format-patch --ignore-if-in-upstream -o .patches origin master
  fatal: Not a range.

I'll retest later with these patches and post again.
