FWIW, personally I can recommend using the "git-publish" tool
for sending patch series as it makes it (mostly) foolproof.

Assuming you've got your work on a branch and keep using the
same branch across multiple postings of a piece of work, then
running 'git-publish' with no arguments will "do the right
thing(tm)", includign:

 * Format a mail for every patch on that branch vs master
 * Add a cover letter automatically if there are 2+ patches
 * Use MAINTAINERS to automatically CC (mostly) the right people
 * Keep track of patch versions, incrementing after each posting
 * Remember the cover letter text across each posting
 * Send to qemu-devel by default

The only config task for git-publish is to have the global
git "sendemail.smtpserver" option set, which you'll have already
done for git send-email.

There is more guidance on submitting patches at:

No problem.
