Me too.  Yet I submit patches to add them.  ;-)

I agree.  Your suggestion is way more elegant.

I have some more git-am/git-merge/git-pull/git-rebase patches
brewing; I'm finishing the commit message for the last in the
sequence.  I'll update it to include your suggestion and try to
start cleaning up this --reflog-action mess, then ship the series
out to the list, including this mini 2 patch series you are
rejecting for good reason.
