However, method to derive rerun directory found too complicated. Opting for a simpler method that checks out again the PR into a rerun_XXX directory and copies changes over from some other directory.
Includes changes to event handler (new format for initial PR comment), job manager (finding PR comment), arguments, required dependencies. Also includes a very basic tool to check contents of a PR (i.e., mimics what information bot could obtain if it would be given a repository name and a PR number).
Procedure was missing the step to checkout the base_ref branch.

This PR addresses issue #29. It adds two tools which help in debugging why a software package cannot be built:
resubmit.pytakes a previous job (working directory) and optionally changes to that job (another directory whose files are copied on top of a freshly obtained PR - the contents of the original job). It creates a new job directory, submits the job and updates the comment corresponding to the original job of the PR. Some minor tweaks on the formatting of PR comments were necessary to make this happen.inspect_pr.pytakes the full name of a repository and a PR number and prints some information about the PR. Currently, this shows very limited information (just thebase.repo.ref), but could be easily extended. While trivial this tool may be useful to show what information the bot can obtain given a specific repository and PR number.While functional (it's been used extensively to investigate build issues), this PR is flagged Work-In-Progress because it will benefit from resolving the following issues first (first merging this PR may make some of those issues more complex to resolve):
