On second thought, it may be not necessary. You can extract an old commit

replace all references from an old to a new one. And you will be able to see
changes immediately in gitk.
Hmmmm, interesting thought. That just might solve my problem.
In that case, I will stick to extending git fsck to check grafts more
rigorously and fix git clone to *refrain* from looking at grafts.
If anyone still wants the extended format, I'd be willing to implement
it, but my immediate itch for it is gone.

You are confused; but this is your normal state.
