Some of these change the behavior, so those should be broken out and
justified more clearly.  Every behavior change you need to say what
changed, and why.

I can't describe how annoyed I get when I'm going through old patches
and I see something like bc9025bdc "blah blah blah cleanups
simplifications.  ps I also fixed a locking bug."  The bug fix is
the important bit, and the cleanups can be mentioned in the ps.
