I'm actually OK with the status quo, but if we were going to change it, I would continue to leave (default) out. Completely unqualified = cpython default Only branch name = cpython branch Only repository name = other repository default repository name and branch name = other repository branch Well, I'm not sure, but the regularity of the "cpython" prefixes makes it easier to distinguish cpython commits from non-cpython ones IMO.
It's a mental pattern matching thing - word layout is noticed before word content.
So the suggested scheme:
[python-checkins] Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet [python-checkins] (3.1): Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet [python-checkins] devguide: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet [python-checkins] devguide (hg_migration): Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
provides more distinctive subject lines than the current:
[python-checkins] cpython: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet [python-checkins] cpython (3.1): Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet [python-checkins] devguide: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet [python-checkins] devguide (hg_migration): Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
What we have isn't bad, but I agree with Benjamin that it could be better.
Cheers, Nick
