As above
On which wiki? Has the community discussed and approved this?

I support this! http://www.powertrip.co.za/blog/archives/pre-commit Could work, tweaking the < 10 to be some value we'd like to set as minimum :)
Certainly seems to make some sense. I'm sure there are very few use cases that a summary would be < 10 chars. Unless we all become avar... Then it'll be many times greater than this ;)
"eol-style" and "typofix" are both less than 10, and both common commit summaries. I've also seen people do things like "b->a" to indicate a 1-letter change. I'd say as long as it's at least 3 characters or so we'd be fine. The main thing to rule out is empty commit summaries. (Of course this does nothing to help people make their commit summaries *descriptive* of their changes, but that's a social problem)
Empty commit summaries are blocked now. Just used the example from pre-commit.tmpl :)
Why hasn't this been reopened already? :P
Fixed and re-deployed. See /trunk/tools/subversion/hooks.
