Each file which gets committed with the long message has a separate copy
in the CVS repository, so e.g. a 1k commit message which touches 10 files
(suppose you added a bunch of patches) adds 10k to the repository for a
very minor code change. The rule of thumb is generally to be concise,
because CVS repositories don't usually ever shrink :-)
