Earlier I've mentioned the `--dirstat' thing as something that is
likely to make him happier.  You can take any notification email, and
just use the range at the top to see the paths it spits out, for
example, Stevie's recent push:

  git diff --dirstat ed1c74108f..4336f29273
    93.8% collects/racket/contract/
     6.1% collects/tests/racket/

If someone can write some bash/sed/awk code to turn that into
something like:

  in collects: racket/contrack tests/racket

then I can put that in the subject line.
