  ~I think it's more that not all existing git commands (rebase, am, cherry-pick?) preserve all headers.~ ignore, misread the above

    That's a downside of using headers, not a reason for using them. If upstream git changes to help this, it would involve having those preserve the headers. (though cherry-pick has good arguments of preserving vs generating a new one)

      ah, I'm sorry, I misread your comment (and should have mentioned the cherry-pick thing anyway).

        It’s all good!
