It is why I do NOT import dsc material, but I use the same kind of message.
And I group the git-commit to avoid numerous ones.

In the previous package version, the test named walk failed over a sample input data file
with generic name 344: it was frozen and I sent a report to the upstream maintainer team,
along other minor reports.
This version of 4ti2 mainly fixed the reported issues, see the (upstream) NEWS file for
more details. So I unfrozen this test and I performed some minor changes in the debian
material to reflect the fixes brought by the upstream team. Those changes are minor
in the sense that they mainly concern maintenance, but not end users.

I try to be concise. I guess that what you mean is that I should git-commit more often.
Thanks,
Jerome
