See Documentation/process/5.Posting.rst
"In general, the second and following parts of a multi-part patch should be
sent as a reply to the first part so that they all thread together at the
receiving end.  Tools like git and quilt have commands to mail out a set of
patches with the proper threading. "

For me, patch 1,2 and cover letter appear as disjoint so hard to
review the patches when they are split in my inbox.
A patch series if threaded, would appear together so easy to look at it.

Said that, if you are using git send-email, easiest way is to supply the
whole patch series to it and not per patch basis
For example:
git send-email ....../dir_of_patches/

would ensure they are threaded and sent together
