Me for one. I prefer to run the script against the commits in the repo
before I generate the patches, rather than manually hand-editing the
patches afterward - or having to fix the repo and then regenerate them.
Also, when I was maintaining the next-net tree, I used to use pwclient git-am
to apply a patch, and then check-got-log.sh -1 to sanity check it once
build checks had passed.
