This commit log doesn't follow the rules of the sections 9.5 and 9.8 of the Committer's Guide: https://docs.freebsd.org/en/articles/committers-guide/#_capitalize_the_first_letter_of_the_subject https://docs.freebsd.org/en/articles/committers-guide/#_limit_messages_to_72_columns See also: https://docs.freebsd.org/en/articles/committers-guide/#port-commit-message-formats "you become a committer, so you have to follow its rules, it's not optional." (cit) And yes, this is ridiculous, because it's more important the respect between us than those rules.
