BTW, this workload was exacerbated by my foolish desire to keep the revision DAG nice and clean. So I was actually starting over from scratch and redoing all the cherry-picking every couple of days, just so I could get all the cherry-picked revisions in strict chronological order. By the end I had evolved a pretty elaborate guided-process automation script to do all the cherry-picking, which you can see here if you're curious:

Couldn't you just keep this as a branch that you then keep rebasing (without unlinking the original branch)? It doesn't seem like something that needs a one-off script, to me.

Cheers,
