Re: [PATCH 2/8] Add --unannotate

Teach git-subtree about --unannotate.  This option strips a prefix
from a commit message when doing a subtree split.

Hrm.  This looks like a workaround for a short-sighted misdesign of
the annotate option that only allowed prefixing a fixed string.  I
have to wonder if it is better to deprecate --annotate and replace
it with a more general "commit log rewriting" facility that can
cover both use cases?
