<snip>

Because devel has changes that weren't integrated to test in P4 and I
made changes in test via git and now need to sync test -> devel so I can
then sync devel -> test (if I'm understanding correctly).

I am now trying to figure out, since devel is now in sync, how to pull
everything in devel (multiple changes) into test, but cherry-pick is
only for a single change. I think I need to use `git merge` and list
multiple remotes and use the octopus strategy, but I have not tried that
yet.
