I've been meaning to rename it to match yours, for the exact reason.
The only reason was I needed my time spent to deal with other
topics, and reusing the same topic name as I used very first time
was less work.  I'll find time to update it (if you are curious, it
is not just "git branch -m").

Thanks.

Not the "name", but the implementation not sharing the same code
with "am" codepath even though they originate from the same shell
function and serve the same purpose.

I'd rather see the "make elengant" thing redone in a more sensible
way, but I feel that it is waste of my time to help you see the
distinction between maintainable code and code that happens to work
with today's requirement, so I give up, hoping that other people
will later refactor the code that should be shared after the series
lands.  I'll squash the fixup! thing in, and as I already said a few
days ago, I do not think we'd want v4 (rather we'd want to go
incremental).
