Steve - it looks fine except for some of the commit subject lines. You
have to have a blank line after the commit log when using 'git am',
otherwise it appends the OriginalAuthor: cruft.

You can fix this by using 'git rebase -i HEAD~N'. Change the affected
commits from 'pick' to 'edit' which will then give you an opportunity to
'git commit --amend'.
