[Monotone-devel] Empty change log

[Johan Bolmsjö]

Hello,

This is more of an question than a bug report:-)

Currently it's not possible to do:

$ mtn commit -m ""
mtn: beginning commit on branch 'test'
mtn: misuse: log message rejected: empty messages aren't allowed

But it's possible to do:

$ mtn commit -m " "
mtn: beginning commit on branch 'test'
mtn: committed revision 7ee27ff3e659d674a8008c4b7db814fcbac3968c

Now I guess that in the case you enter the commit message in the text editor 
this is a protection mechanism (which I find very usefull). But when doing it 
form the command line I can only assume that you folks don't like empty 
commit messages. If that is the case I think that the second example should 
fail too (only white space in commit message).

P.S.
This was for testing my previously reported bug, I don't do this IRL:-)

BR,
Johan
