I would see the grafts file being changed, which would alert me (the
problem I have with graft is that it *replaces* history information for
an element, not just *add* to it, which threw me off at my first
attempt at creating one).

Last time I tried, git would not add files that was in the ".git"
subdirectory to version control. I might have done something
incorrectly, though, so I'll see if it works now.
