If you are sending a new version of something please flag that in the commit message, this helps both people and automated systems identify that this is a new version of the same thing.
Are RFC patches eligible to be picked up? I wasn't sure if I had to resend it at all. But since there was a mistake in the commit message anyway, I went ahead and the the first "real" version. How would you flag that? Isn't changing the subject from "[PATCH RFC]" (ok it was "RFC PATCH", my bad) to "[PATCH]" enough?
No, both people and machines are going to get confused.
