I'm a bit confused here. It looks like the patch only affects commits
made via webkit-patch. Given there are a lot of people who don't use
webkit-patch land, I'm not certain this strategy is sound even in the
short term. Furthermore, the proposed patch seems to have a race
condition when multiple commits are made concurrency? Why don't we do
this in post commit hook instead?
