117 project you can add a section that looks like [project_settings] or

302 If you have a cover letter it will get sent to the union of the Patch-cc
303 lists of all of the other patches. If you want to sent it to additional
304 people you can add a tag:
318 Here is an example workflow for a series of 4 patches. Let's say you have
330 but that you don't want to submit because there is an existing patch for it
331 on the list. So you can tell patman to create and check some patches
336 If you want to do all of them including the work-in-progress one, then
337 (if you are tracking an upstream branch):
349 Now you have an updated patch series. To check it:
353 Let's say it is now clean and you want to send it. Now you need to set up
392 Of course patches often attract comments and you need to make some updates.
393 Let's say one person sent comments and you get an Acked-by: on one patch.
394 Also, the patch on the list that you were waiting for has been merged,
395 so you can drop your wip commit. So you resync with upstream:
419 Finally, you need to add a change log to the two commits you changed. You
429 When you run patman it will collect all the change logs from the different
430 commits and combine them into the cover letter, if you have one. So finally
431 you have a new series of commits:

451 2. If you put tags in the subject, patman will Cc the maintainers
454 3. If you want to keep the commits from each series you sent so that you can
455 compare change and see what you did, you can either create a new branch for
456 each version, or just tag the branch before you start changing it:
462 4. If you want to modify the patches a little before sending, you can do
