Hi everyone,

For the last few days I have been working on a tool I call "patchtool".

Check it out here:
http://thejosh.info/libreoffice/patchtool/

It scrapes the mailing-list archives, looking for messages with a
subject of [PATCH] or [PUSHED]. Those messages go into a database, and
get threaded together based on subject lines. If PUSHED is found in
the subject or body of any message, the pushed flag is shown on the
patch viewer. Attachments are searched also, but currently it just
links to the ones in the mailing list archive.

It's still a little rough, and at the moment I'm manually running the
cron-script, but I like it thus far.

I would like to add a feature where it downloads patches and does a
"git apply --check", and will flag patches which are "clean" (against
master).

Cheers,
Josh
