Yes, such inconsistencies will be gone when the both topics get merged. You can just assume that the details of what you write may not matter in the end result ;-)

Or perhaps the other topic would graduate first, in which case you have a chance to rebase these patches on top of the 'master' that already have the other topic. Your patches would then be consistent with the base commit, as the base would already be cleaned up.

Thanks.
