The script would have to derive the component name from the PR number. 
That might a complication.

Looks like the best variant to me (I agree that enabling "- <description>"
after the PR number would be good).

I would be really unhappy with this one because I often look for PR numbers
in the GCC mailing list archives and so having those numbers in email subjects
helps tremendously.  Therefore, best if people continue putting the #s in
the subject.


I'm not sure why you keep hitting so many issues; git addlog takes care of
this stuff for me and I've had no trouble pushing my patches.  Is there
a reason you don't use it also?
