'push -f' is not an option.

Ugly history happens. It's a nuisance, but the generated Changelogs will
have to be edited anyway (at least that's my experience from generating
Changelogs for CEDET). But I think we should have a method to override
the Changelog from the commit message; 'git-notes' would be an option
for that.

I fail to see what is gained by reverting the changes from this
merge. It makes the history even more messy.
