You have to tell the other guy in your cover letter section.  You can
try to guess if the index information is accurate by grepping
around a log output looking for that blob sha-1 and then finding
what branch that's in.  Its not pretty.

IIRC other DVCS systems include the ancestor identity in their
patch output.  Git doesn't bother, because in a multi-patch series
the 2nd (and subsequent) patches would have useless id information.
