The current version of this changelog generation program handles git-note
correctly.

If we are going to list all commits, I think it's better to just link to
github. I think it supports the same rev list syntax that git cli uses.

git-cherry-pick does not automatically copy a git note. I was going to
update a program to traverse the cherry pick through the distinctive
comment that it leaves.
