Once you picked a base, usually it is a good idea to keep it, unless
making a trial merge of the resulting topic branch into 'master'
leaves conflicts that are not trivial.  And I do appreciate your
noticing and mentioning that it is recommended to have a comment in
the cover letter (or a comment after the three-dash line if a single
patch topic) that the new iteration has been based on which commit.

Thanks.
