It is helpful to add a version number when patches are re-submitted to
avoid them being confused for a new patch. git-format-patch has the
--reroll-count option which makes this easy to do.

Hello

Should I resubmit the above patch again including the version number,
or can I start doing so from the next time onwards ?

Thank You

Another tip: try to avoid posting, it can make the conversation
confusing [1].
