Btw, the reason I wasn't straight in my head about this was that I'd
still been thinking of --reintegrate as doing "swap in the branch tip
to replace the trunk tip, because the branch contains everything the
trunk does". That was the base case that originally motivated our
--reintegrate thinking, but we've gotten well beyond that now, and as
a result, what we do can no longer be described as a simple swap-in.

I'm saying this here partly as a sanity check. If the above doesn't
make sense to you, then I'm worried :-).
