I never liked the idea of changing messages of published commits (which for svn *is* every commit). There's also another thing I consider bad when changing commit messages: svn doesn't keep a history for those changes. Also, did the server send an email for that change (or did I just miss it?) My main reason for not wanting to change commit messages however is still the same: it doesn't fix the (social) problem of prople writing lazy / broken commit messages (and, as I said before, accidents happen and aren't much of a problem if they are accidents only and not social issues.) I'm definitely for not allowing commit messages to get changed and instead asking people to follow some guidelines (like the ones Daniel proposed) when writing commit messages. - Dominik
