Actually it partially fixed the problem:

* quilt push doesn't apply the 2nd commit in the patch file (expected
behaviour),
* quilt push -f works fine, just after pushing -f, quilt diff -z output
is null,
* I resolve the conflict, quilt diff -z output just contains my latest
modifications, it's fine,
* Then I refresh the patch, boom, the initial patch is reduced from 17KB
to 14KB.
