  thanks, unfortunately this script still needs work.

  There seems to be no documentation.

  I feel this is a wrong approach - it should be derived from some of
the tg scripts instead. Please use the common header and options
parsing infrastructure. Also, please adjust your script to be non-bash
specific.

  We already have this function.

  Please quote variables use; this also applies to the rest of the
script.

  Indentation?

  Wouldn't it be much more convenient to just use

	git log -1 --pretty=format:"From: %an <%ae>%nSubject: %s%n%n%b"

You should document the origin of this snippet.

Please use mktemp.

Do you actually need the tmp file at all?

We didn't before?

info?

Does it make sense to print it all out now?

Why do we need all the rev-parses? Is the git cherry checking really
useful?

This flattens the commit structure, which is another problem; the commit
relationships should rather be described in the .topdeps files. Using
git log --parents should give us that information?

Why do you actually loop twice?

Make this configurable?

Also, I don't think reimplementing git rebase here is good idea at all.
I would just imagine the script to do something like

	git rev-list ^HEAD lastcommit | while read commit; do
		tg create tp/$branch_name
		git read-tree $commit
		git add .top*
		git commit -C $commit
	done

So allow only to import commits that are _on top_ of the same commit the
topic branches system is going to be based on.

Why two commits?
