>From what I've heard basically all meta-data about a commit (including
author and date!) is mutable. Previously suggested was to stub out the
commit message and user data with placeholders, and drop in the real
information using git notes. I like your suggestion (of using git
replace instead) better. How would we know to use git replace though?
Does the replay API somehow indicate that a revision changed since
last time you looked?
