I am guessing that it will build on top of the "use add -i/p from more commands" series, so I'll try to apply these on top there, but I wonder if it would help readers if we had some extra comments for human consumption next to "base-commit:" line (similar to the other stuff like Published-As added by GGG), perhaps in a format similar to the one we use to refer to random commits, e.g. base-commit: 2d4b85ddc76af3e703e6e3a6a72319b5e79c2d8b # commit --interactive: make it work with the built-in `add -i`, 2019-12-17 perhaps?
