Or, if you made a modification but you want it committed to an underlying patch, use "refresh --patch" or "pop --keep; refresh".

BTW, if it's not clear for me how to initially structure a patch series, I add everything to a patch and create underlying patches afterwards and pick hunks from the big one (usually manually, though native support in StGIT for this would be good, as someone pointed out on this list). If all the hunks in the big patch were added to other patches, pushing the big one should result in an empty patch automatically (because of the three-way merging) and can be safely removed.
