Monkey-work is scriptable though.  It'll all be worth it if git
cherry-pick is even marginally smarter about back-merging the actual
patches.  In principle it could be less easily confused than plain
old patch, but I was a bit discouraged by the upthread comment that
it's just a shorthand for "git diff | patch" :-(
