Issue 854 in lilypond: lilycontrib.tcl

Comment #1 on issue 854 by Carl.D.Sorensen: lilycontrib.tcl

I've looked at this, and I think I've added the minimum functionality to  
make it work.

It will initialize a repository (from savannah, instead of repo).

It will automatically create a patch from origin/master.

As long as it works well, it should be convenient.  But I'm concerned that  
if it gets an error, it will be a support
nightmare.

There is no commit functionality.  I don't think it makes sense to create  
commit functionality; it would just be
a duplicate of git gui.  And if they use git gui, they'll gradually get  
more up to speed on git, which I think is a
good thing.

I'd like to invite some frogs to try it out, to see how it looks.

On my system, I can't make it run by typing lilycontrib.tcl.  Instead, I  
have to type
wish lilycontrib.tcl.

As far as testing is concerned, you will probably want to change the line

set lily_dir $env(HOME)/lilypond

to

set lily_dir $env(HOME)/lilypond-test

so that you won't overwrite your current lilypond repository, if you have  
one.


Thanks,

Carl
