There seems to be some mismatch between b4's use of the
cover letter to a patch series and what maintainers that
apply a subset of the patches in the patch series.
The merge description shows the entire patch series as
applied, but the actual merge is only a subset of the
series.
Can this be improved in b4?
For example, regarding:

I'm not so sure about that.
The commit merge description in -next shows 23 files
modified but the commit range shown in the merge shows
only a single patch applied:

Merge series "use semicolons rather than commas to separate statements" from Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall at inria.fr>:
These patches replace commas by semicolons. This was done using the
Coccinelle semantic patch (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) shown below.
