Oh, I forgot to say that I do not have anything against embedding the extra info as part of the free-form "log message" text part of the commit object like you have been suggesting. If the information can be cast in stone at the commit time, that would actually be preferrable, as you do not have to worry about transferring notes separately. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
