Heh, anybody can blindly apply the patches corresponding to the branch and attach to it a sane commit message. If that was the real problem, it would most probably already be done and we wouldn't discuss here. But Guillem wants to review and understand the code. In this process, he will rearrange the changes in smaller logical chunks. If the code had been submitted in that form (easy to review), the branch would most probably already have been merged and we would be done.
