If we start along those lines, we also have to add documentation how to

- split commit,

- change authorship of commits,

- deal with commits where --cherry-pick did not detect that they were 
  applied already,

- deal with merge commits, and

- possibly a lot more.

I do not think that this is a good way to spend valuable screen estate; I 
think that is what the man page should cover.

I only made an exception for the deletion of lines, as people were 
actively burnt.  Yes, they should have read the man page.  But the 
consequences of not doing so were bad.

Ciao,
Dscho
