phabricator: add commenting to phabsend for new/updated Diffs Especially useful when sending updates to existing Revisions so one can specify the sort of changes e.g. "Address review comments" or "Rebase to tip" If the diff content hasn't changed then it only needs a metadata update which doesn't show in the Phabricator updates UI, so don't add a comment that will.

# extdiff will set the parent and child to a single file if there is
# only one change. If there are multiple changes, directories will be
# set. diff(1) does not cope particularly with directories; instead we
# do the recursion ourselves and diff each file individually.

	diff $opts $1 $2
if not{
	# extdiff will create a snapshot of the working copy to prevent
	# conflicts during the diff. We circumvent this behavior by
	# diffing against the repository root to produce plumbable
	# output. This is antisocial.
	for(f in `{sort -u <{getfiles $1} <{getfiles $2}}){
		file1=$1/$f; test -f $file1 || file1=/dev/null
		file2=$3/$f; test -f $file2 || file2=/dev/null
