Hi,

I have a subdirectory in my top-level directory, which I merged using  
subtree strategy. I want to send my patches upstream, so I did  
something like:
git format-patch -o patches -n --relative=click click/master myclick

This produced a bunch of files in patches directory, most of which are  
empty. When I tried this --stdout, I had something like this:
[PATCH 8725/8846]
[PATCH 8726/8846]
[PATCH 8750/8846]
..
[PATCH 8845/8846]

So, it seems that format-patch was counting all patches, but only  
printing the interesting ones.

I'm running git 1.6.0.1 on FreeBSD7/amd64.

PS. Please CC me, since I'm not on the list.

Cheers,
Nikola
