This isn't really possible right now. We've been discussing how we might
support patch series but it's a long-term goal.
There are a few ways that I've seen people cope:
(a) post each change in the series as a successive diff, so you can use
interdiffs to see what changed each time.
(b) post each change in the series as a separate change using post-review's
--parent option, which would give you a separate review request for each
piece.
(c) Do an iterative approach where only the first change in the series
is posted,
and then once review is done, it's pushed and the second change is posted,
etc.
