I expect the first three patches applied and to then be given sensible
options on how to fix it and then options to either continue or back
out again.

In my specific case, I know that the patches I want to merge are
almost exclusively to files that are already in the mainline and
all the patches I don't want to merge are to files that exist in
the branch but not in the mainline.
