Sure, my only point was about where the commit sha comes from - i.e. whether it's from a comment at the end of the python module itself or in openstack-common.conf > It will mostly help with > getting a diff for that module and the short commit messages where it > was modified. > > Here's a pseudo-buggy-algorithm for the update process: > > (1) Get current sha for $module > (2) Get list of new commits for $module > (3) for each commit of $module: > (3.1) for each modified_module in $commit > (3.1.1) Update those modules up to $commit (1)(modified_module) > (3.2) Copy the new file > (3.3) Update openstack-common with the latest sha > > This trusts the granularity and isolation of the patches proposed in > oslo-incubator.

This is another variant of the kind of inter-module dependency smarts that update.py already has ... I'd be inclined to just omit those smarts and just require the caller to explicitly list the modules they want to include. Maybe update.py could include some reporting to help with that choice like "module foo depends on modules bar and blaa, maybe you want to include them too" and "commit XXX modified module foo, but also module bar and blaa, maybe you want to include them too".
