I think if you git cherry-pick -x r11-1234-g123bcdef1234
then it will show up in the commit message rather than just
123bcdef1234. That command will not accept just r11-1234,
as that is not a valid git commit-ish, so you'd need to do
git cherry-pick -x `git gcc-undescr r11-1234`
and then it would show just hash, or
git cherry-pick -x `git gcc-descr --full $(git gcc-undescr r11-1234)`
and then I think it should show up as that r11-1234-g............
