Perhaps these changes deserve to go into their own JIRA? In general, small focused patches are better since they are easier to review and less likely to conflict with other patches that are being worked on. > My question is: > How do you deal with multiple, uncommitted patches that have/use > overlapping code? > How do you deal with uncommitted patches that are still in the > evaluation process?

It can also be useful to put up patches even when they are not finished so that others can see what you are working on and provide early feedback. Cheers, Tom > > Cheers > David
