Description Aakash Jain 2019-01-03 03:06:38 PST
We should run the CheckPatchRelevance step before applying the patch. CheckPatchRelevance is very quick, usually less than a second, While applying the patch seems to take about half a minute (since it involve cleaning up any previous change, updating to ToT and then applying the patch).

For queues like WebKitPy-Tests where very little percentage of patches are actually relevant, it is a waste of time to apply the patch and then discover that the patch doesn't needs to be processed in the first place. Therefore checking the patch relevance should be one of the very first step.
