I'm the author of a lot of the source in the tree and I don't trust
anyone's script enough to commit the result without a review.

I don't care who edits the damned files. The issue is that I
posted (1) complete patches for most of the tree and
(2) I asked for review.

You ignored (1) and by "nibbling" are making my work
"hard". You didn't want anyone to do that to you but it
was OK to do that to me.

When I ask for review on something, I think it is something
that needs review. I don't care who wrote it or how it
was generated. Why is your script any less suspect than mine?

This isn't about how you feel. This is about cooperating.

You ignored my near work which eliminated ALL CVS Ids
in most of the tree. It was available for review and
I had specifically asked for review. If anyone has
reason to have their feelings hurt, it is me.  You obviously
think my changes were not worthy of your review time
and it didn't matter if you "nibbled" and caused me
extra work.

Somehow your changes were above needing to be
reviewed while mine were unworthy of your review.

So were mine. What makes your "nibbling" so superior that
it could conflict with my complete work which was available
for review?

That is an operator error on your part.  That's why I did the
work on a git branch on my personal repo. It could be reviewed,
the patches squashed into a single "automatic" and a
single "manual" if that was what the community wanted.

The review was for both "correctness" and to ensure
that the community was happy with the edits.
