Creating a commit is easy.  I think for cases like this it's a good
idea to at least write down a "Based on patches from ..." in the
commit message, and preferably also how it relates to their patches.
E.g. dropped android local crap, ported to $FOO kernel ABI, or just
rolled up totally confused local repository history.
