What does it mean to "spot-check a change"?  Also, what are the
criteria for judging these "spot-checks", according to which you say
"PASS"?

Would it be a good idea to show a few lines?  Or are you only
interested in the fact that the "Update from HEAD" log was caught?
How about the list of files -- did you verify that it is identical to
