OK, I've done that. You can see the new message at:

Nice! If you want to shorten the SHA to the first six digits, that's plenty and shortening is a commonplace in the git world.
Let me know if you have any ideas or opinions. I want to include more information in the commit (maybe the new submodule commits or maybe the dates from the updated submodules), but I don't currently have a good way to get information from the submodules themselves, so I can't do much at the moment.
Timestamp? I didn't follow the discussion of timestamps closely, so am not sure if a timestamp could be generated that would be useful, however. --Beman
