Filtering out replies to a patch series

[Amit Kucheria]

Hi,

I am wondering how developers on this list handle the case of grabbing
a patch series posted to the list and using something like git-am to
apply it to their local trees.

Several patches in the series could have replies to them and hence
they need to be filtered out.

e.g. I use notmuch show --output=mbox thread:000000000000eb4e to get
the basic series. But I'd appreciate any tips on filtering out the
replies.

Cheers,
Amit
