There doesn't seem to be any documented system for keeping track of the patches, just an exhortation to submitters to rebase and resubmit frequently during the limited "merge windows" at the beginning of each development cycle. It sure seems to me--and likely to most everyone else in the FLOSS community--that learning to use GitHub or GitLab as a prerequisite for patch submission is the less painful route.
