Reported by org...@gmail.com, Sep 3, 2014
Affected Version: 2.9

If the user has a chain of commits which he needs to submit one after the other (cherry-pick strategy), then the Related Changes tab is very useful to iterate over the changes one by one and submit.

The problem is that it disappears right after submitting the change.

For merged changes, it is useful to have at least the parent and direct child commits (maybe also cherry picks).

If I understand the problem correctly, since we use cherry-pick strategy, the submitted commit is new, and doesn't have any direct children. Because of that, no change can be found that depends on it.

It's not related to the merge strategy.  The related changes tab is not shown at all for merged changes.

IIRC this was by design.  I also seem to remember seeing and issue reported about this before.

Right, that's the one I was thinking of.  Seems like this case is different though; looks like the cherry-pick strategy is relevant here, as you wrote.

It currently shows only child commits, but that's a start.
