[issue18967] Find a less conflict prone approach to Misc/NEWS

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

Like David I don't really care, but it seems Zach's script may show promise. I think it would be nice if "news.py --commit":
1) popped up an editor window (like hg commit does)
2) processed the editor results and looked for hints of an issue number
3) automatically created that file, hg add'ed it and then hg commit'ed the whole thing with the right commit message

I don't like Brett's approach.
