The function for_each_remote() does exactly what the name suggests.

The function remote_find_tracking() was extended to be able to search
remote refs for a given local ref.  You have to set the parameter
"reverse" to true for that behavior.

The updated patch does not use "reverse" but the old description
is still there.

Urgh. Right. May I ask you to paste this instead?

The function remote_find_tracking() was extended to be able to search 
remote refs for a given local ref.  You have to set either src or dst in 
the refspec, and remote_find_tracking() will fill in the other and return 
0.

Daniel, one thing I fear about your "I want to store the message
in the object store so that I can reuse even after I re-polish
the series" desire on the cover letter topic is this kind of
gotcha, and that is why I suggested "*** BLURB GOES HERE ***".

I am happy that my fsckup served a purpose, then.  (And maybe this would 
be a good hint in rebase -i's man page, too, since that is how the error 
was introduced here.)

Ciao,
