* The commit message should start with a single short (less than 50 character) line summarizing the change, followed by a blank line and then a more thorough description. Tools that turn commits into email, for example, use the first line on the Subject: line and the rest of the commit in the body. The git-shortlog command that we use to write the release notes will strip the more detailed description.
