The title of your commit will be read hundreds (of thousands? :-)) of times, so it pays off to spend just a little bit more time to polish it, making it descriptive and concise. Please take a minute to read the advice [most projects agree on](https://github.com/erlang/otp/wiki/Writing-good-commit-messages), and stick to 72 or fewer characters for the first line, wrapping subsequent ones at 80 (at most). -- cgit v1.2.3
