The best thing to do is to reply to this thread with a v2 patch and
pester people until they review/commit it (or reject it :).

Generally, git send-email is the best way to send patches, and you can
use --annotate and put messages that you don't want to appear in the
git log after the --- marker. Also, --in-reply-to will allow you to
keep threading working properly.

Thanks!
