My point was that nothing in the subject line nor that first paragraph
(nor, for that matter, the entire commit message) says that we are
talking about marks here.

If you guess that "we" means the marks code and not all of fast-export,
then yes. But I do not have any desire to get into another debate trying
to convince you that there is value to having a clear commit message.
Junio has already proposed a much more readable one.
