I think this happens when you have some extra patches on your tree, and these two patches are on top of them. Then you email me only these two patches, and when I try to apply them, git will complain as the underlying patches are missing from my tree. So you should always rebase the patches you will send on top of a clean public tree, preferably my dss2 tree or main linux tree.
