Damn it: checkout doesn't get executed at all because the $mb = $onto condition fails; I was looking in the wrong place. It's format-patch and am that are slowing things down terribly. Has anyone looked into stripping out the dependency? Why is cherry-pick deficient? My current workaround is to use the faster `--keep-empty` codepath, but it doesn't persist state on conflict. Isn't this an undocumented fact (aka. bug)?
