Well, one of the main arguments pro-DSCM is that it makes it "stimulates" you to do quick commits of partial work while you're working on a patch, for example. Those partial work commit messages are (probably) not suitable for a ChangeLog entry. As a developer, I surely don't want to see all those commit messages related to partial work from others. --lucasr _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
