The best patch-tracking candidate I=E2=80=99ve seen so far is =E2=80=9Cpatc= hes=E2=80=9D, written by/for the QEMU people (the =E2=80=98patches=E2=80=99 package in Guix.) https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/packages/#patches I think it has everything most of us want, including an Emacs interface. The main =E2=80=9Cdifficulty=E2=80=9D is setting it up on a machine where i= t can serve those patches.json files over HTTP based on the mailing list archive (which could be synced from ) and Git repo. There=E2=80=99s a README in the the source tree that explains the details: https://github.com/aliguori/patches/blob/master/README-server.md Would someone like to set it up somewhere and share a recipe? I=E2=80=99d = be happy to beta-test it as soon as it=E2=80=99s available! :-) Ludo=E2=80=99.
