Last time I looked into 'git notes' it wouldn't preserve the notes attached to a commit when you amend / rebase / cherry-pick the commit. It seems that git now supports this! From the git-notes manpage: notes.rewrite.<command> When rewriting commits with <command> (currently amend or rebase), if this variable is false, git will not copy notes from the original to the rewritten commit. Defaults to true.
