Actually, ripple-through changes are rare. In the current project it
seems I need exactly one, but it's buried deep in the past (sadly).
The reason why I need it, is to make sure that git-bisect will work for
any revision in the past (i.e. the tree contained/contains some
too-clever-for-their-own-good $Revision$-expansion dependencies)
But you do know that you don't need to apply the change *now*; you can
apply it at bisect-time? Unless you expect you or your mere mortal
coworkers are going to do dozens of bisects into that part of the history,
I wouldn't change history *like*this*. But of course, I don't understand
the circumstances enough, so... just my 2 cents.
