Backports are almost always created as backports of a specific GitHub pull 
request. The pull request is labelled as, for example, "needs backport to 3.9", 
and a bot will automatically try to cherry-pick the squashed commit to the 
target branch. So, if we wanted to backport GH-19581, we would do that directly 
from the original pull request over at GitHub. That will also preserve commit 
meta-data.
