If you in general submit patches in a fire-and-forget way (so you no
longer have the patches you submitted), then the best way to re-submit
them is just cherry-picking the patch in question (./logerrit
cherry-pick 1533), and then when you git commit -a --amend && ./logerrit
submit it, gerrit will notice the existing Change-Id line, and update
the existing patch.

The other possible approach is to work on a branch, and don't delete
your work till it's not merged, so you can just switch back to the
branch and git commit --amend and submit again. (If you choose this
path, have a look at git-review, it nicely integrates with this
workflow.)
