First off: I apologize for the inconvenience my stumbling causes :-(, and I'll 
try to learn and do better next time I send this or another series.

In this particular case, I am not 100% sure if I understood you correctly, i.e. 
what exactly you are trying to tell me. Is it (in a nutshell) that the subject 
lines of my commits suck, as they don't identify which area of code they touch? 
At least that's the thing I notice when looking at that shortlog... Bad, of 
course...

If this is indeed it, would a commit message like

   git-remote-helper.txt: minor grammar fix

be OK? If this is indeed it, I'll be happy to reroll and resubmit the series 
accordingly. If I am mistaken and something else / more is wrong, please be so 
kind and let me know, too.


Sorry once more and thank you very much for your feedback,
Max
