I'm pulling in this series. But more of an FYI, it's best to avoid
statements like "previous commit" because when developing with git, it may
not be a previous commit, when it goes into a tree. Especially if a commit
gets cherry-picked. 

Instead, use phrases like "With the parallel search changes that
were made, it is now possible to stop the multi-threaded searches and still
be at the correct percentage of the search that is displayed to the user".

It is frowned upon to mention "this commit" or "last commit" in change
logs. I catch myself doing it once in a while, and try to conform as
well ;-)
