[issue558] qpush should have a --dry-run option

[Jeremy Fitzhardinge]

New submission from Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy at goop.org>:

There should be a way of testing whether a patch will apply cleanly, and if not,
tell you what's going to fail.  I currently use "patch -p1 --dry-run -f <
.hg/patches/`hg qnext`" to do this, but it isn't ideal.

I'd expect that "hg qpush --dry-run" would only work with either no patch
argument, or the next patch.
