The following series removes the 'bottom' and 'top' files for each
patch, and instead uses the commit objects to keep track of the
patches.

Wonderful! Does this ensure that there's a bijection between patches
and commits at _all_ times, or am I missing something?

We should get rid of top.old and bottom.old as well.

My question - does this conflict with the DAG patches in any way? I
intend to include the them at some point, once I get a chance to test
the performance penalty with a big tree like the Linux kernel.

Hmm, wait, no. Right. We also have to create commits for those patches
that don't have exactly one commit object. Not that there'll be many
of them, but better not make assumptions ...

Is there any patch which consists of more than one commit? Maybe only
uncommit could generate one but I think we put some tests in place.
