I prefer to summarize myself, but others have complained that you then
can't grep for strings used in the head commit log to determine if a
change has been MFC'd (assuming you don't have the head rev handy and
want to search by some name / string you remember).  In particular I
preferred doing a "squash" of fixup type commits when doing MFCs, but
I've relented to doing the full logs.
