(Look at the ugly commit messages from the git log output) That might as well include a change in the commit workflow, but only if Bram agrees that there is a problem, that he would like to see fixed as well. And I would certainly like to see some of the points mentioned by Markus addressed. I also appreciate the suggestion to create a script, that can do this cleanup mostly automatic. That could be run against the snapshot repository@github so that we can see, that it works and what the results would look like.
