It would be handy if mach had a command that performed system bootstrap. That way, if someone runs into a build failure due to a missing system package, etc, he or she could just run |mach bootstrap| and it would ensure the system is in a happy place to build the tree. The current patch just has mach call the existing mozboot bootstrapper. This is equivalent to running |python python/mozboot/bin/bootstrap.py| except it is more discoverable. In the long term, I think we could overload this command to ensure that system packages like Mercurial and Git are configured properly. Perhaps sub-components of mach could register a "bootstrap" method that is invoked when bootstrap is performed. Then, anything wanting to provide one-time setup could be executed when users perform bootstrap. Mach could even be so helpful as to periodically run bootstrap to ensure your system is optimally configured. Ideas, ideas.

I bitrotted myself in bug 794509. Now that we have automatic command discovery, this code can live in mozboot instead of in mach.
