Meh. In cases where multiple commits have been summarized into one
bullet point, that wouldn't work too well. I guess we could keep *all*
of the relevant commit items in the comment, but I didn't do so this
time; I only worried about being sure the correct set of back branches
appeared in each comment.
I'm willing to start doing it that way in future if enough people
like the idea, but I don't want to go back and figure out what to
add to the lists in this set.
