Anybody can spot > many examples from "git log --no-merges" ;-) Yeah, I was sort of working under the assumption that people found utility in putting that data in a trailer (in which case I'd really suggest doing both; a prose one with subject meant for readers, and a machine-readable annotation). But I haven't really found a use for "Fixes" in machine-readable format. I don't _mind_ people doing it if they do have a use (and I'd even consider doing it myself if I were shown that it was useful). In the meantime, I don't know if we want to state a project preference against it. -Peff
