For a while there was this unfortunate situation where devtool and AUH 
were 'in competition' with each other, but the plan is to clearly 
separate their responsibilities and replace the part of AUH that devtool 
also does with simply calling devtool. So you'll get the nice parts of 
both AUH (making commits and testing them) and devtool (rebasing 
patches, ability to manually fix failures).
