Proposal: merge all jitutils tools to a single dotnet CLI app #232

Open

Description

@BruceForstall

Currently, we have the following tools built in jitutils:

  • cijobs
  • jit-analyze
  • jit-dasm
  • jit-dasm-pmi
  • jit-decisions-analyze
  • jit-diff
  • jit-format
  • pmi

jit-diff itself has 4 sub-commands: diff, list, install, uninstall.

Would it make sense to merge some or all of these into a single tool, perhaps called something simple like just "jit"?

The build might be simpler and faster, and usage might be easier.

E.g., instead of "jit-analyze" you use "jit analyze": the only usage difference is replacing the dash with a space.

jit-diff, which already has sub-commands, might have its sub-commands elevated to top-level, and the existing "diff" sub-command becoming top-level, which would simplify usage as you would have jit diff instead of jit-diff diff.

Perhaps this would make the source code sharing and code management a little simpler.
