Subject: *** empty log message *** is a no-no
Date: 12 Nov 1999 11:57:55 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <whd7tg564s.fsf@viffer.oslo.metis.no> (raw)
Doing
C-x v l
on the files in the public CVS gives
*** empty log message ***
on most checkins (maybe all).
My experience with CVS (and RCS) tells me that this is a no-no.
The most important thing you get from these versioning systems is IMO
the human readable log of changes. If you have access to the
commitlog you can search for keywords and find out when changes were
made.
