So if we decide to chuck it, I hope
we could conform to the file list format in commit messages.
svn provides a file list itself, though, so isn't this also redundant
information? (svn log -v)
Of course, where specific changes need to be mentioned in relation to
specific files, itmakes sense to include filenames. However, often, we
see ChangeLog entries like this:
* file1:
* file2:
* file3:
* file4:
* file5:
* file6: comment
In this case, the file list from svn would have been just as adequate.
Furthermore, one doesn't need to gather the file list at commit time,
which is a huge task in some cases.
Pardon my obsession with eliminating redundancy. :-)
