I probably have a completely different workflow. Git addlog isn't
a git command (is it some sort of a GCC extension?), and what I put
in the subject of my emails is almost never the same thing as what
I put in the commit message.
Why not? Why is it useful to write two different explanations of the patch?
Sometimes, maybe. I don't really think about it too much. I'm not
the only one who does it. But what bearing does what we put in
the subject of our patch submissions have on this discussion?
You may have one way of doing things and others another. Yours may
even be better/more streamlined, I don't know. That doesn't mean
our tooling should make things more difficult for the the rest of us.
