Thanks for the git-bz hint!

OK, I'll remember that!

OK, thanks!

Me too! ;-) (I have working oled helper and some really dirty half
finished code for the CC, GSD and libwacom)

Just to make sure that I understand the workflow (real life example, the
patches are ready to be send):
1. I made a trivial patch set that is not related to any existing bug -
it's simple code cleaning.
2. I should go to bugzilla.gnome.org and create a bug report (category:
enhancement) describing that's it's a code cleaning in
gnome-control-center
3. Upload my patch set using browser OR
4. Use git-bz to upload patches to bugzilla using bug number.

So if i understand if correctly point 2 cannot be avoided? I don't mind
that, but i want to be sure I'm not doing anything that can be avoided ;-)

I was looking for information if it's possible the create a bug report
from command line using git-bz, but I can't find anything like that.
