Thanks!

Hmmmm.  There is an annoying catch, which is that this would make `changes`
as expensive as annotate (which means reading all the patches in the
repository!).  :(  On the other hand, if you call changes --summary on the
entire repository, then that is done anyways...

It's definitely a job for another morning, though.
