2020-05-10b4: Ask caller about branch and base for amKyle Meyer
The function for generating the default branch name may need to be tweaked to give useful suggestions in practice. Let's see.
2020-05-10b4: Rework handling of output file namingKyle Meyer
When passing a name like "a.mbx" to b4-am's --mbox-name, only the "a" is retained; b4-am unconditionally appends the ".mbx". Avoid passing a name with ".mbx" to make it clearer that the caller does not control the extension. Reduce the base name to "m" to avoid a message ID ending with ".*" being treated as an extension, which would require analyzing the message ID in order to guess what output name b4-am will use. Finally, name the custom thread mbox with "-piem" rather than "-thread" (which was chosen to mimic b4-mbox) so it's more obvious who created the file when later inspecting the directory.
2020-05-10b4: Rework call-process helper to handle git callsKyle Meyer
The subprocess handling needs reworked and polished, so this helper likely won't stay around in its current form for long, but it's still useful to send git through it so that a failure signals an error and shows the output.
2020-05-07Add a barely useful interface to b4-amKyle Meyer
Aside from switching the 'b4 am' process to an asynchronous one, the am-ready commands may not need a lot of work. The more interesting variant, piem-b4-am-from-mid, can find an associated code repository and am the patch, but there's a lot that needs to be fleshed out.
