What I cautioned was indeed "git rebase", and the codepath that uses
"git am" internally would be fixed when "git am" is fixed, so it is
OK.

What I wondered was actually "git cherry-pick A..B", but I think it
runs "git commit" via the run_command() API as external process, so
it should also be safe.
