In the wee hours of the morning, I renamed bugzilla-tool to webkit-patch to reflect the tool's general purpose of helping contributors manage their patches. I also renamed a bunch of the common commands to make more sense with this name. Here's a brief summary of my three favorite commands:
* webkit-patch upload This command automates the process of uploading a patch for review. After you're done writing the code, the command will create a bug for you (or let you pick an existing bug), prepare a ChangeLog, let you edit the ChangeLog, and then upload the patch to the bug and mark it for review. * webkit-patch land This command will help you land a patch that's been reviewed. The command will fill in the reviewer from the bug, build WebKit, and run the LayoutTests. If the tests pass, the command will land your patch. * webkit-patch land-from-bug This command does everything that "land" does except it downloads the reviewed patch from the bug and applies it to your working copy first. If the bug has more than one patch, it will land all the reviewed patches in the order they appear in the bug. You can find out about these and other commands by running "webkit-patch --help". If you'd like more details about a command (e.g., land), run "webkit-patch help land". These commands still need some amount of polish, especially "upload", which is the newest. If you have suggestions for improving webkit-patch, please let me, Eric Seidel, or David Kilzer know. Happy patching!
