* commit 'v1.7.2-rc0~6^2':
DWIM 'git show -5' to 'git show --do-walk -5'

This commit fixes one test in t3508 by making "cherry-pick -<num>"
walk the history.
A test update from Elijah Newren is squashed as an evil merge.
This can be useful to do something like:
git rev-list --reverse master -- README | git cherry-pick -n --stdin
without using xargs.

Each of the tests in t3508 begins by navigating to a sane state:
git checkout master &&
git reset --hard $commit
If a previous test left unmerged files around, they are untouched and
the checkout fails, causing later tests to fail, too. This is not a
problem in practice because no test except the final one produces
unmerged files.
But as a futureproofing measure, it is still best to avoid the problem
with 'checkout -f'. In particular, this is needed for new tests to be
added to the end of the script.

Note that there is an expected failure when running:
git cherry-pick -3 fourth
that's because:
git rev-list --no-walk -3 fourth
produce only one commit and not 3 as "--no-walk" seems to
take over "-3".
