New submission from Chris Jerdonek: This issue is to mention in the devguide how to create diffs with the changeset number when --git is configured on. Perhaps this can be done via a FAQ like: "How can I get Rietveld to work with a 2.7 patch?"
Background: Currently, the devguide recommends configuring Mercurial to use --git when making diffs. However, this causes the changeset ID to be left off of patch files and, for example, prevents Rietveld from working with patches to non-default branches.
