But what you wrote was different: About summary lines, a reminder: Please don't write the traditional GNUish run-on change comment with a semi-infinite number of bulleted items in it any more. Hence my reaction to correct your statement so people don't start committing changes without proper ChangeLog-style commit message. Stefan
