Phabricator Emails: Smarter "Revision Updated" Emails with Less Noise

[Mitchell Hentges]

Last Thursday's new release of Phabricator contains a sweet improvement for our Mozilla Phabricator Emails: now, if a revision is updated on Phabricator due to parent changes, we no longer send an email notification for it.

This means that running "moz-phab" on a stack of changes after doing a minor rebase/histedit/amendment will no longer deluge subscribers with an email for every revision. Instead, only the revisions with new changes - such as due to merge conflicts, or simply because the code was tweaked - will have email notifications.

See this bug for more details.

Happy spam-free hacking :)
