Perhaps an > option to pg-push ? There isn't any description associated with a patch beyond its name (which can be changed with pg-rename). Unlike StGIT pg currently doesn't store a description with each patch. This is partly because I want pg to extract the comments given to pg-ci to make the description of the patch during an export with pg-export - but I haven't written the code to walk back along the related commits and extract each comment. On the other hand this might not be the best description for a patch. :-) -- Shawn.
