In the past there had been occasions where it hadn't been clear what a
given branch was going to pull in as additional dependencies, so adding
the complete shortlog seemed like a good way to document this in a more
explicit way.

If you prefer working things out yourself I can tweak the scripts to
generate the pull requests on top of their respective dependencies.

Works for me:
