[U-Boot] How to thread a patch sequence?

Hi
I have posted a patch http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2009-June/054797.html I didn't received email confirmation for the same. (generally I get) Now I need to send v2 patch for the same.
I want to thread my new patch with this earlier patch for better understanding of everyone on this mailing list. Generally I was using message id of received email for this purpose.
Since for above patch I didn't received an email How do I get information to put in "--in-reply-to" field?
Regards.. Prafulla . .

1) generate your patch with some think like this git format-patch -M -B -C --numbered --start-number 1 2) send it via git send-email --to u-boot@lists.denx.de 000*
Best Regards, J.

Hi Jean, Thanks This will give me patch series with updated patch numbers, But my need is - How do I relate/thread the patch with previous posted patch in case I do not have message-id for older one?

generally speaking, you should not post a new patch series as a follow up to an e-mail. patch series should stand by themselves. if you want to post one updated patch, then the normal method applies -- send that one patch and set the referring id yourself. -mike
