Long subject line.  Try to keep subject lines in the form:

topic: short description

with at most 65 characters (reading 'git shortlog' adds indentation and
commit ids, and you still want the lines to be legible in an 80-column
window).

Improperly threaded; this showed up as its own top-level message instead
of in-reply-to the 0/7 cover letter.
