To help each other parse the large amounts of mail we are sending each other some tags were concocted to facilitate finding important mail. These tags are used between square brackets at the beginning of a mail subject. The use of some of these in commit messages might help as well. This is not a restrictive list. You can use your fantasy to be as clear to your fellow developers as you can.
