I rather prefer "impact" to "damage". And it should probably be
"child directory _shown_".
The word "damage" did raise my eyebrow as well, even though I knew it came
from the wording of the variable to compute it, and coming from somebody
like Linus it somewhat sounds funny ;-) I was going to suggest using a
more neutral "change" in the end user documentation.
