Thanks for the advice -- this did exactly what I wanted.

For anyone else wanting to do this: one thing that threw me for a
while was that .git/info/grafts does not accept an abbreviated SHA,
the full 40 hex digits is needed.  I would see "bad graft data" from
gitk with no other explanation.  There is very little documentation
that I could find on the grafts file; the best I could find was in the
man page for git-filter branch:

  http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-filter-branch.html.
You can find definition of grafts in `gitglossary', and where you can
find them together with description of grafts file format in
`gitrepository-layout'
