So, your commit message should have the form of: "Subject line Commit message" A subject line is maximum 50 character long A subject line starts in the imperative mode and does not end with any punctuation marks. The commit message is 72 character long. -- John Doe -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
