This way you cannot reply to each patch separately in an easy way. Thats what "[PATCH n/m]" and threading/chaining to cover letter is for.

Errr... git-format-patch output _does_ include full commit message, author, author date and diffstat.

git-send-email can send fir-format-patch patches (and usually is used in such way).

Try git-format-patch with -B option, or -B<num>.
