   when people commit stuff and put stuff like `fixes bug xxx' would it
   be possible to put a short comment in describing the bug. often I see
   bug reports go by that I forget about, and knowing that such & such
   files were changed and the bug is nada would be good to know :)

I'd like to echo this.  I've been getting VERY ANNOYED by the commit
messages that just say `PR #N'.  The CVS commit logs are supposed to
contain useful info.  It's okay to reference a PR, but that shouldn't
be the bulk of the commit message.
