Bug Description

This is more a feature request than a bug. When you perform a merge from one branch to another, you get the list of pending merges, which summarises the commits that was done in the original branch. When you commit this to the branch, you can get the change set which summarises all the changes done by the merge, but you can also go back in the log and check what each individual commit do. This is awesome and works very well.

The feature request I have is: can this be done with cherry-picked merges as well? We are currently using Bazaar version 1.13 and we have a multiple branches from the same root/source and then we have to cherry-pick certain revisions (or sets of revisions) from the main-branch, without merging some others. This works, but the summary of the original revisions that are merged over is not kept, unlike when you do a full merge. Can this be done?

Thank you.
