I agree that Danfe is coming from a weak position since he's throwing stones while living in a glass house (meaning he's got plenty on his plate and I don't see many commits lately), however, that doesn't make him wrong. The majority of FreeBSD commit messages are atrocious, and that's including when they meet the standard of danfe. I just love seeing QAT message that you can't immediately tell which port failed because only a very few people (like myself) put the name of the port being changed in the first line of the message. The freebsd rationale for not doing it? "The mail list added the port name automatically so it's redundant". Except that doesn't apply to QAT or any external repository. So big fail all already. So he's right + he should get his house in order to avoid the "shut up; you're guilty too" responses. John
