Sometimes it is not "totally wrong" but just "done in a different
away" and is a new series. This happens a lot since upstream
development can be evolutionary. So your v1 may look nothing like v2
and is a whole new series. Yet the history linking the 2 series is
important. And no amount of automated commit ID generation can link
them. This is the scenario I was talking about. I know the git hook
works, but sometimes the Change-Id has to be manually copied. That's
not automatable. May be we are slightly on different tracks, but this
is the scenario that would be useful to trace IMO.
