That's what diffs > are for. I personally very much appreciate an accurate log message. One should only have to take the time to go to diffs if you are interested in the details of the commit. I find log messages such as "Braino", or "Grrr", or similar without any other clarification very annoying because it usually means I have to resort to cvsweb to see what the change actually was. This turns the 2 seconds that it would have taken to read and comprehend the log message into 20 times that long to find out the same information. Very annoying indeed. Please don't encourage useless commit logs. -Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
