I saw some emails about the -commits emails still being a work in
progress but that was a while ago. Is that still the case?
I just thought I'd mention that I'm not a fan of the current mails where
we only get the one line summary of the change: I'd (much) prefer to
have the full text of the commit message.
For example I'd rather see this:
Fix Bug 9725 'Lua: ProtoField.new() is buggy'
Using ProtoField.new() is dicey. Many of the optional arguments don't properly check the lua stack - they call lua_isnil() for their index number, instead of lua_gettop() to see the stack size. lua_isnil() may return false in such cases.
Than:
from c391d74 Fix wslua docs script to handle module names with digits, like Int64/UInt64
adds 2466a7c Fix Bug 9725 'Lua: ProtoField.new() is buggy'
I can learn a lot more (and better follow what others are
discovering/working on) with the details in the former example.
