I actually did that first and liked it more because then the patch was
split into more logical blocks (nine patches in total). However, I did
not add correct changelog entries to the commits. Should I resend the

manually in the email, I suppose.

Have you tried clearing the signature?

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq org-koma-letter-signature nil)
#+END_SRC
