So this is still not split up in the way that we'd normally
expect. You're still splitting up the patches per *file*, when in
actual fact, they should be split up by *functionality*. I think this
is the third time I've mentioned this.

I've also said something similar here, which might be easier to
understand:

You need to learn how to use `git add -i` if you're going to get this
right (the other way is to copy and paste pieces of code into a file
before saving and committing, but I suggest you master the former
suggestion). You need to be adding to the patches a hunk at a time, or
even smaller using `git add`s 'edit' capability.

To reply to emails on the list, you just need to use your standard
email client in the normal way.
