ordering, you cannot run $ git am without ordering.
This recipe has worked for me for years. The patches are probably
implicitly ordered by their names (ie. 0001-...patch etc)
Nevertheless, I
would rather use quilt for managing patches in dist-git.
This doesn't stop you from using another method to apply the patches.
It doesn't even stop you from using your own home-brew method,
although I think standardizing would help for the majority of packages
since it lets co-maintainers and PPs work on them more easily.
