BTW 'Based-on' is a hint for the reviewers and automatic testing bots,
telling "this commit is <based on> this other <series|patch>", and
without applying the base it is unlikely this patch|series applies.

It is not meant the git history, so for single commit we add it under
the first '---' separator (automatically stripped out when applied) or
for series we add it to the cover.

I guess there are no doc about that hint in HACKING neither in the wiki,
I remember the post where it was introduced:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-08/msg01288.html

Phil.
