We use Cherry-Pick merge strategy[1]. Gerrit adds a set of metadata based on
that.

I'm in favor of removing the entire metadata in the commit message and moving
to Rebase-If-Necessary merge type which allows patch dependencies to be
enforced by Gerrit. This is an actual problem we run into often.

If we want additional data about what happened in a review request, it should
happen directly from Gerrit via the REST API[2].
