Hey, i'm not a pro programmer.  There are so many brilliant
programmers here that my self-confidence is quite low; this is second
time i read Python and first time i read building scripts.  And i
don't want to do some stupid mistake, break Patchy and cause
unexpected damage to origin/staging and/or origin/master, which would
result in more problems that i'm trying to solve.

Yes, i've read this 2 times.  If i didn't i wouldn't ask the question.
