`touched-files-prereqs': looks at the patch set for REVISION and at
all preceding patch sets in the same version (it searches your library
rather than your repository for this purpose).  It reports the list of
patches that touch overlapping sets of files and directories -- in
other words, it tells you what patches can be applied independently of
others.  The command has an option to exclude from consideration file
names matching a certain pattern (e.g. "=README" or "ChangeLog").  It
has an option to exclude from the output list patches which have
already been applied to a given project tree.  It has an option to
report the specific files which are overlapped.
