It might be necessary for some older stuff, especially things where a p4
change spans multiple spells that shouldn't all get cherry-picked. For
history lines that happened in git, cherry-picks are preferred.
It's only git-tar-tree btw, no need for temp branches, the only thing to
remember is to remove the directory first so deletions get integrated.
