Oh, hm.  So make a second change on the branch that adds the
debian/changelog and the upgrading-checklist changes and put the Acked-By
lines in that commit, and then merge the whole branch and delete it (or
equivalently, merge the branch and delete it and then make a second commit
that changes the changelog and upgrading-checklist)?  That makes a lot of
sense to me, but I'm just double-checking, since whatever I do I'll
document in the wiki as The Way To Do Things.
