What Magnus means is that I'm a grumpy old developer who complains
about everything.
Anyway, what I noticed was that we're getting stuff like this:
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=git-migration-test.git;a=commit;h=586b324c255a4316d72a5757566ebe6e630df47e
commit 586b324c255a4316d72a5757566ebe6e630df47e
Author: cvs2git <>

This commit was manufactured by cvs2svn to create branch 'REL8_4_STABLE'.

We're not getting that on EVERY back-patch, just on some of them. I
really just want to turn this code to detect merges and cherry-picks
OFF altogether, so that we get the original committer and commit
message instead off the above. It's much easier to read if you're
browsing the back-branch history, and it's probably easier to match up
commits across branches, too.
