Monotone contains a diff command. Should it contain a patch command as well? The reason I suggest this is because if you have a diff that monotone has generated, and it contains information about file renames (which I think diffs can support). patch applies the patch and renames the files, monotone is not notified of the renames and will then make you rename all the files then commit.
Right now monotone does not properly generate the diffs so they contain the rename information, but I still think that patch supports it...
If there was a monotone patch command, it could handle all of the renaming and stuff on it's own. Just wanted to get some thoughts on this.
