Since there is a Gitlink field in the patch metadata, we could start simple
with setting that to link to the commit on pg gitweb? While adding the thread
of the commit from -committers would be great as well, this gets us off the
ground quickly.

Unless there are objections, I’ll ensure that this is maintained during this CF
as part of my commitfest tinkering.
