Description Brian Burg 2014-09-24 16:42:46 PDT 
If you have some patches on a git branch:

111 Refactor Foo.
222 Refactor Foo and Bar.
333 Aw hell, let's delete Foo.

And then run Tools/Scripts/webkit-patch -g 222 while HEAD is at 333, the style checker will die, complaining that file Foo was deleted. This leads me to believe it's looking at HEAD for some reason.
