Hi,

This commit message is telling *what* the diff changes. And is a bit redundant 
in that sense.

I was surprised that the linked review has a very nice explanation of *why* 
this change was needed.

I think it will be very valuable to future commit readers to include the *why* 
in the commit message. The *why* in the message, the *what* is already in the 
diff.

Regards,
Ronald.
