Thanks Harsh for the info and Andrew for sharing the script. It looks that
the script is intelligent enough to pick the latest attachment even if all
attachments have the same name.

Yet, I hope we use the following as the guideline for patch names:

<*projectName*>-<*jiraNum*>-<*revNum*>.patch


So we can easily identify individual patch revs.

Thanks.
