Hello WebKit contributors,

We appreciate everyone’s feedback on transitioning away from Subversion to Git, 
I’ll be releasing an expected timeline of up-coming changes in the next week 
before the contributors meeting.

In the mean time, we’re preparing on adding identifiers 
<https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/commit-identifiers> to new commit messages, that 
work is tracked in https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218407 
<https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218407>. At the moment, we’re likely 
going to be appending the identifiers to commit messages (as the current change 
proposes), but I wanted to provide a chance for folks to object to this change 
before it becomes canonical.

Our intention is also to edit history in the Git clone to embed these 
identifiers to historical commits, but there is some disagreement on that 
intention, and that task will be tracked separately.

Thanks,
Jonathan
