That doesn't address local patches. These were local patches that were=20
upstreamed. I rea this as, if one got a patch from an upstream VCS repo but=
=20
these were our local patches. At the very least the commit logs should=20
reference the upstream commit log entry (which the openresolve one did but=
=20
the awk commit did not). I think that a clear audit trail back to the=20
vendor VCS, bug#, etc., be documented in the commit log.
