What lead to this sequence of commands? The -D (delete local branch), in particular, seems suspect

[Alexey Proskuryakov]

See Tools/EWSTools/start-queue-mac.sh:

# This somewhat quirky sequence of steps seems to clear up all the broken
# git situations we've gotten ourself into in the past.
git clean -f # Remove any left-over layout test results, added files, etc.
git rebase --abort # If we got killed during a git rebase, we need to clean up.
git fetch origin # Avoid updating the working copy to a stale revision.
git checkout origin/master -f
git branch -D master
git checkout origin/master -b master

We should have a similar comment, or maybe even have comments in both places saying that we want to keep these in sync.

Added similar comment in updated patch. Deleting the old EWS scripts in Bug 224460.

Also removed 'git rebase --abort' command since buildbot doesn't perform rebase anywhere, and we also do not perform rebase in our buildbot configuration.
