Yep, that's enough.

The thing is .. I handle lots of pull requests, so keeping everything
straight is not always easy.

You've referenced two branches above, and then the two sets of
short logs are run together in the pull request.

Can you do a quick re-formatting of the pull request into the
normal git pull-quest format ? Where I can see the branch name,
the base commit, and the changes ?

One email for the two branches is fine, but I need to see those
reference points I mention above.
