Great, I'll close the issue then.  The patch will be pushed along with
some package-vc related changes in the next new days.

Hello,

How about a prefix argument to vc-prepare-patch to invert one's usual
setting for vc-prepare-patches-separately?  Most people who contribute
to more than one project regularly will want to use both.

On the other hand, having a numeric prefix argument mean "send patches
correspoding to the top N revisions of the current branch" would be very
convenient.  Perhaps these two could be combined by using a negative
number to mean also invert?
