Since I could not make `amlog` work reliably for GitGitGadget (and you
will recall that it was not for lack of trying, not by _any_ stretch of
imagination, I really, really put in a few weeks and it just turned out
that there was no way to come up with a 100% correct record of mappings
between patches on the Git mailing list and the commits in git/git), the
best I could do was to use `range-diff` to identify which patches made it
upstream, and what the upstream OIDs are.

What you see in action is that this is imperfect. Because in the absence
of actual git/git commits that correspond to the GitGitGadget Pull
Requests' commits, `range-diff` will even identify replacements or
alternative patches as the git/git commits corresponding to the PR.

I don't see how this could be made robust without forcing you to adopt
different processes than you are using right now.

Ciao,
Johannes
