This response makes no sense to me. You don't mind writing the
longest email messages ever, but refuse to type a 50-character URL

But whatever.

No, it's not simple. There's no place to copy/paste from, because
installing a change usually doesn't involve looking at the diffs, or
even producing them. We edit the sources and commit them, that's it.

Yes of course: everyone has to be courteous to you, but you don't feel
you need to be courteous to others.
