Yeah. I included your tab-complete patch in the patch I sent to pgsql-patches, which later Tom reworked and applied. His CVS comment didn't mention the tab completion change. This isn't surprising at all, as minor changes go uncommented sometimes when they are surrounded by bigger changes (like the large object work).
Understood. Why not comment each file separately too much work with CVS?
People just doesn't feel it's important ... other projects have strict guidelines regarding CVS commit message formatting, but what I have seen is in most cases useless noise. Anyone can see the real diffs when there's need.
I do not have experience with CVS ( at work I user Clearcase ) and for my personal purpose I use subversion ( any plans to migrate the CVS repository to subversion or even bitkeeper ? ).
Subversion and arch have been mentioned, but so far there is no compelling reason to change. It'd take convincing at least a couple of core hackers to get the ball rolling ...
Well, I think having seen what's happening at the 8.0 relase I think that committers are too overloaded and someone else have to be "promoted" to be a committers, and I believe that having betters tools can improve the process too.
