hiya,

here's an example produced by git dch:

  [ Sean Finney ]
  * fix syntax error in phpize5 caused by libtool2.2.patch (Closes:
    #529248) - thanks to Michal Čihař

i'd like to suggest the following changes:

  * "Thanks:" lines map to their own seperate line and start with a
    capitalized T (i.e. "- Thanks to ")
  * "Closes:" text follows "Thanks:" instead of the other way around
  * "Closes:" text shouldn't be broken and line-wrapped half-way (i.e.
    line wrap earlier and include the whole text on the next line).

so using the above example:

  [ Sean Finney ]
  * fix syntax error in phpize5 caused by libtool2.2.patch 
    - Thanks to Michal Čihař (Closes: #529248) 

and if Thanks: text were a bit longer:

  [ Sean Finney ]
  * fix syntax error in phpize5 caused by libtool2.2.patch 
    - Thanks to Michal Čihař <this.is.not.his.addr...@gmail.com>
    (Closes: #529248) 


if that seems reasonable i can send you a patch.


        sean
