Okay, then I probably understood you wrong.

I was thinking about
x-gitg/treeish-list: <path>\n<treeish_1>\n<treeish_2>\n<treeish_3> ...

where each treeish may be (at least) a sha1 or a branch name.
But maybe I just got you wrong, and you're covering that with your
treeish or uri definitions already. I didn't have a close-enough look
at your code yet (the recent changelog reads very nice, btw -- cherry
picking support sounds great!).

True. Good idea. I guess I was more confused by the <subject> in the
"x-gitg/treeish" target.

That sounds very nice indeed.
