i would argue that most people write 'merged in [other-branch]' and let those \
interested go read the commits for that branch.

Which is exactly why I mentioned the possibility of deleted private branches, losing \
the detailed commit comments from those branches! Anyway, it was just an idea that \
would certainly save me some typing as I do this kind of commenting a lot. But, I'll \
submit to the (assumed) ‘most people' argument. :)

Thanks.
