Thanks for the tip! I wasn't aware of git-notes. It seems gitk shows a
small yellow rectangle next to each commit I have git-notes on, so
this solution might be the best tool for the job right now.

I also pushed my notes to Salsa (with git push origin refs/notes/*)
but unfortunately the Gitlab software does not have any UI support for
showing notes as branches or as notes attached to commits.
