It's easier to add structured data there than in the commit message though -- but we could also define a standard to add it to the commit messages. Or some inbetween. But whichever way we do it, it's likely going to lead to a non-trivial amount of work to maintain. So the big question is, is the data we can get out of it worth it? -- Magnus Hagander Me: https://www.hagander.net/ <http://www.hagander.net/> Work: https://www.redpill-linpro.com/ <http://www.redpill-linpro.com/>
