[issue400608] just testing

wish we could expunge the deleted ones

While this is a test issue, the attached diff is a crude first draft of a patched upload.py that makes linking to the Python Tracker a bit easier. Here's the command line and output: $ python static/upload.py -R 400608 -F msg32813 Upload server: [...] Loaded authentication cookies [...] Issue created. URL: http://codereview.appspot.com/25073 Uploading base file for static/upload.py And the help is: $ python static/upload.py -h | tail -n5 Link options: -R ROUNDUP, --roundup=ROUNDUP Python tracker issue number to link with. -F FETCHDESCR, --fetch_descr=FETCHDESCR Tracker file or message to fetch description from. I like it :)

This is specific to the Python tracker, which Rietveld tries to avoid. You could maintain this as a locally modified version, but a better approach would be to make just enough changes to upload.py itself so that you can write the rest of this script as a *wrapper* around upload.py. That's how the Chrome people manage their workflow, and that's a generally recommended approach: the wrapper does the project-specific stuff, passing everything to upload.py for the actual interaction with Rietveld. PS. What do you mean by "wish we could expunge the deleted ones"? If you delete a Rietveld issue it is really gone. If you merely close it, you can still delete it later. But I'm probably missing something.
