They're not spurious. The problem is this bit:
{files}\n{file_adds}\n{file_dels}\n{file_copies}
which adds three newlines (in addition to the two before the block and
three after), regardless of whether there are any files modified, added,
removed, or copied. The varying number of blank lines you're seeing is
because some changesets have added or removed files and others don't. You
want to have
{files}{file_adds}{file_dels}{file_copies}
and set
end_file_adds = '\n'
and so on. I have style quibbles with it (too much break between
changesets, don't like the indented comments), but other than that, it
works just fine.
I'd be careful about using file_adds and file_dels, though, since the
mercurial folks constantly warn about how slow it is to retrieve that data.
On a single changeset, it's not really noticeable, but on the 450+
changesets in the IPS gate, it goes from .15s to 7.8s to spit out the
entire log.
