Summary webkit-patch post and post-commits commands should be combined into one

[bzt] bugzilla-tool post-diff and post-commits commands should be combined into one Then we could name the resulting command whatever we'd like. Maciej was suggesting "post-patch" in a private email thread involving Adam Barth and myself. If someone has suggestions for what the command line interface should look like, I'm all ears. Right now: post-diff [options] [BUGID] Attach the current working directory diff to a bug as a patch file post-commits [options] COMMITISH Attach a range of local commits to bugs as patch files I suspect we could pretty easily detect the difference between a commitish and a BUGID. It's also slightly strange that post-commits takes a bug-id option flag: -b BUG_ID, --bug-id=BUG_ID Specify bug id if no URL is provided in the commit log.

How important is it to support the post-commits use case? I've never used this.

post-commits (or some variant there of) is very useful if you happen to commit locally to git branches. Especially with some sort of auto-squashing support like bug 32730. However, I don't think our overall patch process for git is very clean.
