From f82a9e517fc063bb97063e4df2cdde2fd1f7ffbe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Denton Liu Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2020 00:56:17 -0700 Subject: add-patch: add NEEDSWORK about comparing commits The two versions of add-patch has special-casing for the literal revision "HEAD". However, we want to handle other ways of saying "HEAD" in the same way.[0] Add a NEEDSWORK to the add-patch code that does this so that it can be addressed later.
