Makes sense.

I am not sure about the earlier hunk that reports when some commits have actually been skipped. When --no-reapply-cherry-picks is in effect, the user is expecting that some commits are cherry-picks among other (hopefully the majority of) commits, and even those users who do not want to be taught how to use the command would want to learn the fact that some commits were skipped (and which ones).
Using two separate advice configuration variables feel way overkill for this. I wonder if the previous hunk should use warning(), i.e.
