However, are all cleanups done? Is temporary directory deleted? The same questions for the scenario where the user specifies non-existant commit ID as the start or the end commit. Does the script work if user specifies a tag, instead of commit ID? I think it should work. For example, can the user specify v3.1.0 as start commit, and v4.2.0 as the end commit, in order to detect degradation/improvement between QEMU 3.1 and QEMU 4.2? Please test if such scenario works. If it works, I think you should insert "commit ID or tag ID" instead of "commit" only in the commit massage and applicable code comments (including also the user-visible help outputed on "-h"). Lastly, what happens if specified start and end commits are existant, but in the wrong order (end is "before" start)?
