Do we have anyone on board capable of fighting Git enough to give us
*useful* commit messages?
Well, this isn't exactly the fault of git, per se ... it's the post-receive
hook script, and we don't manage the repo so we can't change that. I
can put in requests to the savannah admins (and I believe I did that for
you once before to remove the git output from the email), but they are
busy and don't have great turnaround time.
I.e., could we drop the noise before the '- Log --...' line, and maybe
include a link (or links) back to the repo that display the diffs? Or
include a set of 'git diff ...' command text to do the same thing? We
really should be beyond the process of having to do all this manually
in this day and age :-P
Well, I _do_ look at that noise, and if I want to look at the diffs
for particular commits I use "git log -p". If you want to look at
the diff for the most recent commit, "git pull; git log -p" will do that.
If you want to look at a particular one, use the commit identifier.
E.g., for David's commit do "git log -p bfad64bef"; add a -n 1 if
you just want to look at that one and not go all the way back.
