So the order used for the hash is independent of how the patches are arranged in the repository. All that we need is that we agree on which patches we are looking at. So my suggestion only works if the set of dependencies of U is unique up to order.

The dependencies of a patch are unique up to order, and the general idea of hashing just U with its dependencies has been discussed before (search for phrases like "minimal context"). I can't remember what the conclusion was, if any, though.

If you track down the past discussion, it would be worth writing up as a wishlist item for the bug tracker if not already there.
