--edit::
With this option, 'git cherry-pick' will let you edit the commit
message prior to committing.
--x::
- When recording the commit, append to the original commit
- message a note that indicates which commit this change
- was cherry-picked from. Append the note only for cherry
- picks without conflicts. Do not use this option if
- you are cherry-picking from your private branch because
- the information is useless to the recipient. If on the
- other hand you are cherry-picking between two publicly
- visible branches (e.g. backporting a fix to a
- maintenance branch for an older release from a
- development branch), adding this information can be
- useful.

--r::
- It used to be that the command defaulted to do `-x`
- described above, and `-r` was to disable it. Now the
- default is not to do `-x` so this option is a no-op.
