Reiterating what I wrote there

https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/issues/438#issuecomment-2381017430

I would store all ref metadata in one ref.  Either divide it
up into files or have one structured file.  I’ve seen this idea
floating around.  I haven’t seen any purpose-built tools for it yet.

What I do right now: store all cover letters and whatever notes in an
untracked directory.  I plan to version it with a parallel Git database
(named something like `.git-mine`).
