# This script runs a given command over a range of Git revisions. Note that it
# will check past revisions out! Exercise caution if there are important
# untracked files in your working tree.

# This came from Gary Bernhardt's dotfiles:

# Example usage:
#     $ run-command-on-git-revisions origin/master master 'python runtests.py'
