It would make sense to rename the log-preserving undo "reject".
The scenario would be:
1. star-merge with contributor's branch
2. reject unwanted patches
"Revert", the verb for "reverse", seems better suited to "replay
--reverse".

I am not yet up to date with that.
If that works okay, I will make some tweaks to fix the existing name
conflicts and add a tlash.d file to add the aba commands directory to
the PATH.
At this point, the integration will be completed, thus the "eventually".

The ability to use and view only the patchlog or non-patchlog part of
changesets is a generally useful feature which I believe is okay with
Tom to put in tla.
Pointing at the forest behind the tree at hand, do not look at the
finger.
