If you are *ever* cherry-picking something to an older stable branch, please use git cherry-pick -x <sha1> That will append a '(cherry-picked from ....)' message to the bottom of the commit, allowing us to always find the original commit that we are duplicating. This implies that we are always committing to the master/next branch *first*, and then cherry-picking to stable. As a general rule, a fix should always be 'upstream' first in the new branches before it is backported to something older. The exception is fix that is unique to the stable branch, for example because the new code has changed.
