Very odd, do you think this is a bug in mumi of some kind? I'm new to email
based git workflows, so I've been leaning a mumi for a lot of my setup. Didn't
even think to look if it was trying to apply patches in the correct order, I
just assumed it was and I was doing something wrong.

To your second point, I have the same question. My current theory is that I am
new enough to the mailing lists that I have to go through some sort of approval
process before my emails appear in the actual list and subsequent mumi site,
but I have no proof of this, other than my posts historically taking many hours
to actually appear. Maybe I am doing something wrong?

Thanks for linking your tree (and adding the helpful instructions!) Glad to
report I cherry-picked the commits without any issues. I'll continue working
on my changes I am making to my system (that integrates these changes) and
report on the proper issues if I run into anything!

Best,
