But StGIT uses plumbing (or in the future perhaps PyGIT library).
And plumbing does not write by itself reflog messages. It is left
for porcelain (and StGIT being patch management interface is
porcelain) to provide reflog message in GIT_REFLOG_ACTION.

If I remember correctly StGIT is made to be more friendly to and with
core-git. Providing reflog messages for "git reflog" / "git log -g"
would be nice.

Besides 'stg log [<patch>]' is a bit orthogonal: it describes history
of a patch, and I want history of HEAD or of branch head (with things
like refresh, new (!), goto, float / sink, rebase (!)).
