URL: https://github.com/apache/xalan-java/pull/108#issuecomment-1775023049

   > helps to have a XalanJ process already setup as of now for non-committers 
to be able to make their codebase contributions to XalanJ
   
   Committers already have an infrastructure: they can commit to a branch 
directly.
   If you commit directly, it is less actions for everybody:
   * less commits: no "merge" commits in history
   * less notification noise for everybody: no "pr created and immediately 
closed" notifications
   * less work for committers: they can just commit code instead of "commit 
code + create PR + merge PR"
    
   >Definitely not, please.
   
   Could you please clarify why you deviate from the Git recommendation then?
   https://git-scm.com/docs/git-commit#_discussion
   
   > Git commit man page: It’s a good idea to begin the commit message with a 
single short (less than 50 character) line summarizing the change, followed by 
a **blank line** and then a more thorough description.
   
   > mukulga: Shortening the PR title, of a complicated code change, and not 
mentioning needed details on PR title, shall make it difficult for users to 
start reviewing the code changes of the PR
   
   Please read `git-commit#_discussion` carefully. I do not suggest removing 
details.
   I suggest using "subject" and "body" better: put the most important bits 
into **subject**, and put details in **body**. They should be separated by a 
blank line as per Git conventions.
   
   It is not something I invented. It is a generic Git recommendation.
   Do you think you could format commit messages into the subject line and the 
body?
