Read the above single line and nothing else, while pretending you do not know what this patch is about at all. That is what readers of "git shortlog" will see. It may be obvious for you, but can you tell whose socket the series has updated in 6 months after forgetting what you worked on? The title does not give any hint that this is about the credential cache daemon.
