Dear qgis committers, may I ask you to make your commit logs
more verbose than a bare ticket number reference ?
It is nice to be able to know what's going on by simply reading
the git log, without the need for a network connection and
a running and live bug tracker.
Also commands like `git log --grep=<some_keyword>` become nearly
useless if the commit log contains no description of what's changed.
Ideally the log would have 1 line with short description and a
longer description in a second paragraph. Note that this format
is also expected by `git format-patch` which turns the first line
into a mail subject and the subsequent paragraph to the body.
Also github pull requests use the same semantic for interpreting
the log.
Thanks everyone for your attention to source repository quality :)
