        -n, --numbered
            Name output in [PATCH n/m] format, even with a single patch.

maybe this option to git format-patch can help you even if that's not 
exactly what you ask here :

        --cover-letter
            In addition to the patches, generate a cover letter file 
containing
            the shortlog and the overall diffstat. You can fill in a
            description in the file before sending it out.

Eric
