A distribution point repository like this is often bare, and reflogs are
not enabled in bare repositories (primarily due to my stupidity^Wbeing
overly cautious---I was very skeptical about reflogs when we introduced

major version bump.
Also a distribution point repository is often served by gitweb and it
would be really nice if there were an option to allow its summary view
to show commits annotated with reflog entries, e.g.
