Bozhidar Batsov (a.k.a. Bug)

In recent months I've started to receive more and more PRs for my OSS projects with very detailed explanations of the code changes (including the tests). Most of them are in pretty much the same format, and of course it's quite easy to guess how they were produced... Especially knowing how very few peopled bothered to write anything close to such details in the past... :-)

@bbatsov are they useful, though? Or generic sloppy slop?

@DoomHammerNG Not great, not terrible. Most often just redundant verbosity. E.g.

@bbatsov Do you find the explanations redundant or actually useful?

@tusharhero Usually not very useful, but not horrible either. E.g. you often get a detailed list of test changes that you'd also see by checking the changed tests. I guess each person would have their own perspective on the value of such details in commits. I prefer to focus on the essence (why/what), not the details (how/where).
