Why do we need all this stuff in the message Subject? The "DragonFly-"

folder I'm reading), space that could be used for something useful.

Completely agree with Aggelos. What was wrong with the master <files> <commit id> line?

Especially the string generated by git-describe is IMO a waste of space. What
is so special if one can see that we are n commits ahead of 2.1.1 ?

it is shorter than the 32-character commit id. The original mail script placed it at the end, but that script also didn't list the changed files.


I think I don't mind the ID being in front, but I could live without "DragonFly-"

cheers
