We suggest developers to logically split a big change into multiple smaller patches, so we can review them more easily. For example, I want to add a feature, this feature involves refactor existing codes. So for easily review, I want to split this big change into 2 parts:
1. Refactor existing codes, which doesn't introduce any functional changes.
2. Add new codes that implementing feature.
These 2 patches formed as a patch series, we have to review patch 2 after patch 1 is reviewed. In other words, These 2 patches (or reviews) has dependence. So how to create reviews of these 2 patches?
I have seen someone ask a same question in https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Fisheye-Crucible-questions/Crucible-how-to-review-a-series-of-patch/qaq-p/841110, but it does resolved. Could someone help me?
