There have been talks about polishing cg-rewritehist into a
shape suitable for inclusion in core git.git, now Cogito is not
actively developed anymore.

Ah, that looks like it'd fit the bill.  I may see if it'll still work
for my simple case.  Thanks for the pointer.

I think the first thing to fix is its name "rewritehist", which
may technically be correct, feels a bit too ugly ;-)

Naming is very important.

Maybe git-rewrite-commits?

I seem to recall hearing (from PE) that one of the early Unix guys was 
later asked if there was anything they'd change in hindsight.  Their 
response: they'd spell "creat" with an 'e'.

In related news: there is really no question that bike sheds should be 
painted red. Really.
