automation configs with changeset + updates

This is fine, but you need to also adjust either the release_config1.py or release_config2.py symlinks (in the repository, not on the master) in order for a master to use this config.

Be sure to delete the .pyc files before reconfiging, too.

Also note that there's going to be some manual intervention required with this release, as we haven't ironed out all of the alpha -> alpha update bugs. You'll need to pay attention to all the caveats in the 3.7a3 notes, except for the patcher / update verify config bumping -- I think that will work fine for this release.

Let me know if you have any questions.

patcher config bumps

Both the details URLs and the prettyVersion's are wrong. We had to fix these after the fact in 3.7a3. To get them right the first time here, use:
details http://www.mozilla.org/projects/devpreview/releasenotes/

and for the prettyVersion, just the number part. Eg:
prettyVersion 4
for the 3.7a4 block

The past-update line is wrong. One of the other patcher configs has an example of a correct one (http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/tools/patcher-configs/moz192-branch-patcher2.cfg)
