That's true, but you can use a 'git tag' command to mark the whole stack as something useful and this would include the state of all the patches on the stack. This would be a whole stack history, not individual patch history. Maybe we should implement this as well (or maybe only this). Anyway, I wasn't sure that's the right implementation and that's why I didn't include Chuck's patch yet. -- Catalin
