gitlab recently closed a 2015 feature request https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/14116
PS: What's this "AD" prefix you're using?
Apparently currently "1 patch = 1 pull request of e.g. multiple commits" in Radicle.
That confusing, since in Git a patch usually refers to a single commit:
* git format-patch outputs 1 ".patch" file per commit.
* Its output also enshrines that, in the subject lines that appear e.g. on Linux mailing lists: "[PATCH 1/2]", meaning "one of two patches in a patch series".
So when reading "Patches", I was intuitively unnecessarily scared that the tool cannot handle whole branches, and flattens out all commits.
Maybe "Patchsets"?
That's what kernel people apparently call them:

Like BitTorrent, you choose which repos to mirror. If you’re crazy or you watch your server like a hawk you could just choose to automatically mirror everything.
Like BitTorrent there is no way to “moderate” what another node chooses to share.
They are working on tools to help permissive nodes remove repos flagged for deletion, but the protocol itself does not prevent a node from ignoring this flag.
