            Bug ID: 249415
           Summary: PR branch names should use the issue number as the
                    canonical reference, not the title string
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: simon.fraser at apple.com

`git webkit pr --issue 249413` when you're already on the PR branch for issue 249413 should not throw an error like it does today:

OpenSource % git webkit pr --issue 249413
Creating a pull-request for '249413' but we're on 'eng/webkitparser-py-should-give-a-better-error-message-when-message-arguments-are-unnamed'

We should fix this by putting the issue number at the start of the branch name, so that the scripts can always associate a branch with an issue. This also makes the branch name immune to retitling the issue.

I suggest:
eng/249413-Foo-bar-baz for bugzilla issues
eng/rdar10249413-Foo-bar-baz for radar issues
