This is my preferred solution, but you don't have to do it this way.

Try git-cherry-pick.  Get a list of the SHA-1 patch ids and reset your
branch.  Then cherry pick each patch with the -e flag.  Git will pull
up an editor and let you edit the commit message before applying so
you can add the Acked-by line.

Cheers,
