Re: [RFC/PATCH] rebase: add -x option to record original commit name

In the longer term, we would rather deprecate -x from cherry-pick, so that we won't contaminate the commit log message. So in that sense, I would give a mildly negative response to this patch.

We might instead want to add a hook that is called from cherry-pick (and rebase will get a similar one) immediately after the command creates a new commit out of another commit, so that people can record the correspondence in notes namespace if they choose to.
