git bz apply should get mozreview patch information from hg changeset about git-bz-moz HOT 6 CLOSED

In the PR, I only fixed the authorship issue.

As to the date issue, since raw diff's lack of authorship and patch creation time, we can only refer to the authorship and creation time from Bugzilla. I think that's the reason why the original implementation treat attachment uploader as the author, and attachment creation time as the patch creation time.

As can be seen in the example, only two possible time can be referred, creation_time or last_change_time. IMHO, creation_time makes more sense to me, so I'm not sure if we should treat the date/time issue as a bug.

mozreview requests have corresponding mercurial changesets. Those have full authorship information, including date.

I can't find a trivial way to get the corresponding mercurial changesets... :(
Maybe after Bug 1346321 is fixed, we could get the corresponding mercurial changesets. Then, we can apply the full authorship information accordingly.

I'll leave the issue open for the more specific request, in case somebody wants to figure out how to do that. #93 will at least improve the situation, and also applies to the case of diffs attached to Bugzilla that have no information.

mozreview is no more.
