Description

<Zoffix> c: use lib <data/all-modules/zoffixznet/perl6-WWW>; use WWW; for (^7+9)».fmt: "%02d" -> { "https://irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6/2017-10-$_/text".&get.lines.grep(.contains: "New CPAN upload")».say }
<committable6> Zoffix, ¦use: «Cannot find this revision (did you mean “all”?)»

Arguably it can run on 2015.12,HEAD anyway.

We already have a similar behavior for messages starting with “say”:

<AlexDaniel> c: say 42
<committable6> AlexDaniel, Seems like you forgot to specify a revision (will use “v6.c” instead of “say”)
<committable6> AlexDaniel, ¦v6.c (23 commits): «42»

Maybe v6.c is an overkill.

Research direction

Reproduce the two committable6 examples showing an invalid revision and a command beginning with “say.” Review the revision-selection entry point that handles these messages; done means an unrecognized revision still runs against a fallback such as v6.c or HEAD, while preserving the existing output behavior.
