Thanks to those who took the time to improve their commit messages. I saw a lot more commit messages with good explanations, which made it much easier to catch up with the state of the system after being away for a week.

I still saw some log messages whose entire contents are "Fixed bug xxxx". It would have been really helpful to know what bug xxxx was right there in the message log. I know that it is more effort to put additional detail into these messages, but it saves each reader of the message from having to go to bugzilla to find out if the bug being fixed is relevant to a particular part of the system.
