: So Larry, the interface I would like for people to have is simply
: something like this:
:
: bitccs --extract "Checkin-name" | mail torvalds@transmeta.com
:
: and the "--extract" function would just create a Alan-like patch that is
: sent to me as a plain textfile (subject, body, context diff and all).
:
: I can then do "s../doit" to save it to my "doit" file, and batch them up,
: and then do
:
: bitccs --apply ~/doit

OK, you got it. We may need to revisit if I get it wrong, but this is
exactly the feedback I wanted. I'll try and build you exactly what you
asked for here.
