reason about why will-change doesn't give them the performance benefits
that they expect.

From what I recall, the default moz-git-tools way is to have a clone for

I have a script that handles pushing a range of commits to the repository of my
choice. This script is essentially:
for id in ${range}; do
git show --unified=3 --id=${id} --format="${stuff}"
I use git day to day. I use hg primarily for landing code and "hg bzepxort".
