Hershberger branch nick: local timestamp: Wed 2010-02-17 16:39:21 -0500 message: 2010-02-17 Mark A. Hershberger * vc-bzr.el: fix typo in Known Bugs section. * isearch.el (isearch-update-post-hook): New hook (isearch-update): Use the new hook. modified: lisp/ChangeLog lisp/isearch.el lisp/vc-bzr.el The Committer used the full Changelog entry as the commit message, so on interfaces that just shows the first line of the commit (like the emacs-diffs mailing list or the output of `bzr log --short' or `qlog') you see 2010-02-17 Mark A. Hershberger which is hardly indicative of the change. This seems more of a short comming in `bzr log --short' than in the way one writes commit messages. A commit message is more than a single line. And the purpose of a change is always more suitable in the actual code as a comment.
