I have a script(TM) which pulls the versions, cover letter, to- and
cc- addresses from the commits. It also runs them through
checkpatch.pl and does its own checks. It makes adding a new version
easier because you just have to update 'Series-version: 2' to
'Series-version: 3' for example. It also collects the change lists
from the various commits and puts them in the cover letter and emails
them out. It's not really U-Boot specific, but it does take a monkey
work out of sending out U-Boot patches.

Perhaps it would help?

Regards,
Simon
