That would be fine.  I don't really care if they're their or not, they just
seem to clutter up a lot of the commit messages and make it hard to tell
what was actually changed.

We have a site license for IDEA at work and most people use it.  I tried
using it for a while and the key bindings were too confusing and I just
couldn't retrain my muscle memory quickly enough to be productive.  The
people on my team also have enough problems with it that I'm pretty leary of
switching anyways.  Eclipse does everything I need it to and it does it well
enough that I don't find myself wondering what the devs were thinking when
they write it that I feel inclined to switch.

And to be fair I really have nothing against IDEA, I would be making this
request whether I was an IDEA user or not.  And if someone were to commit
Eclipse project files and they were cluttering up commits then I'd make the
same request about them.

Thanks for making the effort,
Rich
