My lad @kernellogger is a good lad.

@vbabka @kernellogger ;)

It's enough to see you stick up for kernel devs Thorsten when people engage in the usual attacks (people learned nothing from the XZ thing), we can disagree on things like CVEs but you show spine where it counts :>)

Another case where detailed commit messages really really help.

It blows my mind that any project decides not to provide detailed commit messages when the benefits are so massive...!

@6d03 @liskin you're a good man for making the effort!

While I (obviously) disagree with auto-squash taking the time to really be detailed in what place you possibly can already adds a ton of value.

I think the guidelines at https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html are relevant even for other projects (in the 'describe your changes' bit). Obviously tailor accordingly.
