Clients of libostree such as rpm-ostree make extensive use of the `ostree commit -b foo --tree=ref=foo` pattern in their tests, e.g. to simulate an update. What I'm trying to solve here is that it's often the case that we want to keep metadata from the previous commit without having to be too verbose (i.e. reading from the parent, then passing it as an argument). The new `--keep-metadata` switch makes this really easy. I intend to use this in the rpm-ostree testsuite to make sure we always carry over the `source-title` metadata as well as during set up for tests that require `rpmostree.rpmdb.pkglist` metadata. I initially implemented this in a small wrapper script that uses the API directly, though we make use of so many other `ostree commit` functions that it'd require re-implementing a lot of it.
