Hmm, funny enough, `pick <original merge>` was something I though
about originally, too, feeling that it might make more sense in terms
on what`s really going on, but I guess I wanted it incorporated into
`--recreate-merges` too much that I tried really hard to fit it in,
without changing it much :/
And now that I said this in a previous reply:

The difference between "rebase merge commit" and "recreate merge
commit" might starting to be more evident.
So... I might actually go for this one now. And (trying to stick with
explicit mappings, still :P), now that we`re not married to `merge`
expectations a user may already have, maybe a format like this:
pick <original-merge> <original-parent1>:HEAD <original-parent2>:<new-parent2>
Here, original-merge is a _commit_, where original-parent and
new-parent are _labels_ (in terms of `--recreate-merges`).
Everything else I previously said still holds - one is allowed to
change or drop mappings, and add or drop new merge parents. Yes, in
case user does something "stupid", he`ll get a lot of conflicts, but
hey, we shouldn`t judge.
p.s. Are we moving towards `--rebase-merges` I mentioned in that
other topic[1], as an add-on series after `--recreate-merges` hits
the mainstream (as-is)...? :P
Regards, Buga
