Neat, thanks for the tip, I was wondering if folks were always
counting out 12 characters when copying SHAs...

Was there anything special I should have put in the commit message to
show it was changed from upstream? I sent it in reply to this email
I'm responding to, but gmail doesn't display it as a child. It can

know if there's a better way I should send it.
