Please squash the changes and send a revised patch. You can just use the normal "Reply" operation in your mailer and attach the patch. You don't have to use "git send-email". If you do want to use "git send-email" then with "git format-patch" you can pass "-v 2 --in-reply-to='<Message-ID>'" where <Message-ID> is the value of the "Message-ID: ..." header field in the message to which you're replying. That will keep it in the same thread.
