Commit messages for spin-kickstarts.git

(resending to [e-mail])

A note to all spin-kickstarts committers: Please be so kind as to
mention the ks or the spin at the beginning of your commit message.

Bad:
"Save some space"

Good:
"KDE: Save some space"
"fedora-live*-kde.ks: Save some space" (affects both fedora-live-kde.ks
and fedora-livecd-kde.ks)

Only abandon the spin/kickstart if it is a global change, that affects
all spins.

Most committers already do this, so please consider this only a small
reminder. I am convinced that this will make our lives easier.

Regards,
Christoph

This might be something that could be tweaked in the hook that sends the 
email.  The name of the kickstart file, or a part of it, could be 
stuffed into the subject line.

Great idea! Until somebody has the time to implement it, I suggest doing
it manually.

Thanks,
