Re: Small changes with big diff

Season’s greetings doc’ers, I can only repeat what has already been said. Please keep commit diffs as informative as possible. Part of that involves not mixing whitespace/formatting changes with actual content changes. Not doing this makes life more difficult for translators, or anyone else looking over the diffs, to see exactly what changed. If you do want to make a “content change” and fix whitespace, formatting, etc. then you are encouraged to do so; in separate commits, which should also hopefully have clear commit log messages. For example, translators don’t really need to look at a commit logged with “reformatted file to wrap long lines”.
