    Sorry to be a pain in the neck about this, but could we please use more
    descriptive commit messages? I do try to read the commit emails, but
    since the vast majority of comments are "CAY-XYZ", I can't really tell
    what's going on unless I then look it up in JIRA. Even including just
    the JIRA issue subject would be a big help. Something that actually
    describes the changeset would be even better. For example:

    "Added new implementation of blah to make blah2 even easier (CAY-XYZ)."

    I know I made the request in the past, so if I'm the only one this
    bothers, then I'll drop the issue.

    Thanks,
    Kevin
