"get them tested and reviewed" reads to say to get them tested and reviewed..
by others. at least in english it does. :)

but 1 2 or 3 years from how.. i can still look at the log NEXT to it (next
along in time) and easily see what that commit is doing/for. i see lots of such
things when digging through history and it doesn't create a problem. i pretty
much use git log -U so much i made it a script (git log -U --color). and thats
the same as the mailing list. you get the log WITH the diff there. the diff is
what matters.
