Please don't do those back-merges. Particularly the *pointless* ones
with bad commit messages.

I've pulled this, bnut your tree literally had three commits, two of
which were WRONG. Their commit messages were pure garbage.

Don't do this. Seriously. It's garbage.

If you can't do proper merges with proper commit messages, just don't
merge things. It's that easy.
