People often seek to learn how mach commands work. A common way to do this is to launch a debugger and step through the code as it is executing. But this requires someone to first find and modify the mach command. This involves overhead. This patch adds a global --debug-command argument to mach. When present, we launch an interactive debugger right before command dispatch. This allows people to easily enter a debugger to see what mach commands are doing, hopefully lowering the barrier to understanding and contributing.
This directory contains common Python code. The basic rule is that if Python code is cross-module (that's "module" in the Mozilla meaning - as in "module ownership") and is MPL-compatible, it should go here. What should not go here: * Python that is not MPL-compatible (see other-licenses/) * Python that has good reason to remain close to its "owning" (Mozilla) module (e.g. it is only being consumed from there).
