Hi all,

In the history I see merge commits like:

    "Merge pull request #12345 from some_user/random-branch-name"

This is GitHub's default, but it is quite silly. The branch name is not
informative and also not important. It is also subject to deletion any time
so you can't follow it to learn anything. This is why the committer guide
instructs to make a useful message:

    https://beam.apache.org/contribute/committer-guide/#merging-it

You should end up with this:

    "Merge pull request #12345: [BEAM-XYZ] fix data loss bug in WobbleIO"

Ah, now that's much better.

Kenn
