Subject: Make "stg export" save the base commit in the output directory
X-Git-Tag: v0.8~11
X-Git-Url: https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~mdw/git/stgit/commitdiff_plain/6c4e4b6848f4d68aaeebbca4cbd0f544413c8dc1

Make "stg export" save the base commit in the output directory

When trying to apply a series of diffs that was exported from an StGIT
series, it can be convenient to know exactly which base commit the
patches apply to.  Save that commit as a comment in the "series" file.
