Ideas about additions for git-bz ================================ The presence of an idea here does not necessarily imply that I have any intention of working on it myself. - Owen Allow omitting bug reference when obvious When there is only one commit, and -u/--add-url has previously been used, or the commit subject/body contains [Bb]ug #?\d+ you should be able do just: git bz attach HEAD^ Default to -e/--edit when only one commit When there is only one commit to attach, we might as well default to -e/--edit - it's more powerful than the prompt and still allows aborting. Use XML-RPC when available. Maybe use python-bugzilla: http://fedorahosted.org/python-bugzilla/ Not sure there are a lot of advantages to this; one thing that it might be possible to do with this is allow the user to specify only the product and get an interactive list of components. Also, better error handling. Handle redirects: Should follow redirects, both to different URLs and http => https Better display of errors Currently specifying a non-existent product/component just dumps out raw HTML for the reply. Etc. More general patch application 'git bz apply' currently only handles patches formated with 'git format-patch', it should be able to apply general patches as well. For general patches, you would use information from bugzilla to prime the author and commit message, but allow further editing of the commit message. Make -u/--add-url kinder on the reflog -u works by resetting, then on each patch, running git cherry-pick followed by git commit --amend. It would be nice to only have one (informative) reflog entry for the entire process, or at least avoid the double commits.
