I like it... one possible enhancement, for visual folks like myself, would it be of any value to include and example? Or pointer to a dummy commit message in gerrit, on a wiki, or wherever? Even a template perhaps. Just looking in gerrit on your own is fine of course too, but who knows, maybe you'll come across one that's incorrect :( _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
