Whereas cherry-pick would (optionally) generate a cousin reference for every
commit it picks.

Sorry for wandering into a thread in the middle.  But we've already
been down this road before, and decided the additional header wasn't
worth it from cherry-pick.  What's changed?

I'm not familiar with the old thread.  Any pointers?  (I tried googling,
but couldn't seem to find it).

 The fact that gitk
wants to hyperlink this?  Why can't it just regex out a string of
hex digits longer than 6 and see if there is a commit that matches?

To avoid (accidental) duplication of the old thread, I'll try and read
that first.
