Please people - the number of patches involved is entirely immaterial. I want my merge messages to say what those patches *do*? This whole "how many patches" thing is a disease. It's not even remotely interesting. I see the size of the patch in the diffstat, and that actually has some meaning in the sense of "how much does this pull actually change", whether it's in one patch or a hundred. I have absolutely *zero* idea what the above pull request actually asks me to pull. So I won't. Linus
