FWIW, Mozilla moved to Phabricator not long ago and the revision stack 
thing was a huge annoyance.

Nowadays we have tools to manage the stacks for us [1][2], and that as a 
plus don't require arc/php to be installed on your system.

I don't do much LLVM / clang stuff, but submitting stuff with [1] just 
works (with `moz-phab HEAD~N --no-bug`), and it should submit your last 
N commits separately automatically, without having to submit them one-by 
one and linking them via the web interface / annotate stuff in the 
commit message.

Sorry if this is just noise, though maybe it helps.

Cheers,
