Subject: How to force stricter threading
Date: Mon, 9 Mar 2020 09:15:39 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200309131539.wx56ntf7cb3gpozh@chatter.i7.local> (raw)

Hello:

I think public-inbox currently does some heuristic-based threading, 
which may actually not be that useful. For example:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-renesas-soc/20200217101741.3758-1-geert+renesas@glider.be/

None of the [PATCH] messages have references or in-reply-to set, but for 
some reason they are threaded together. I can generally see this being 
useful for exact subject matches, but in this case all of the subjects 
are different (despite being similar).

Is there a way to enforce stricter threading rules?

-K
