The problem with this is that it is possible for a single commit to
affect more than one module (consider the case when changes are
committed to gstreamer/libs/ext and gstreamer/libs/ext/cothreads [which
happens to be defined to be a separate module]).  I could easily do:
"[gst-cvs] cothreads gstreamer: cothreads/ gstreamer/libs/ext/"
Anything else would be somewhat trickier to implement.

Good plan.  Limit of 256 characters, I think.
