Just speaking for myself here: I indeed never realized that "-m" was short for "--patch-name", but using "--patch" for "-p" sounds sensible.

I think the imperative nature of "--set-patch-name" is a bit weird between the other declarative flag names. Wouldn't "--name" do the trick just as well? Reinier
