When people write log messages, please imagine that someone's going to
be reading it in a log of the Athena 10 trunk, not a log of the
particular file you're modifying. You don't have to go into great
detail, just provide a bare minimum of context: "In debathenificator,
the apt-get source should not run as root."
(A message like this is clearer when viewed with svn log -v, but that
makes some log messages huge, so it's a little inconvenient.)
Not a huge deal, just something I want to reinforce from the ground
rules. Thanks!
