I religiously use the additional message "upstream release" in such cases. This is important information. When there is *no* commit message, I know that the person who committed the change is a person who dislikes commit messages. When there is a commit message and it says 'upstream release' or 'bump version' or whatever, then I know they put some thought into what they're saying, and there is genuinely nothing else to say. ... Given the original intent of the commit message was, explicitly, "let's use commit messages and insert a couple newlines so that the committer is ready for the commit message", I'm quite sure I don't understand your rationale at all. The only thing wrong with the commitpkg template is that it doesn't have editor-specific methods for starting with the cursor at the third line. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
