Well, that's kind of difficult without using git for development work. I can try to remember to name patches suitably, but that's another manual step for me then, and while I continue to attach files I would have hoped that the mail bodies nowadays come through uncorrupted (and hence I'd expect file names to be chosen by your mail client based on subject, which includes numbering - that's at least how mine behaves - and there being no actual need to use the attachments).
