+(0) Each commit should correspond to a single change (whether spread
+    over multiple files or not).  Do not mix different changes in the
+    same commit (eg adding a feature in one file, fixing a bug in
+    another should be two commits, not one).
+
 (1) Commit all changed files at once with a single log message (which
     in CVS will result in an identical log message for all committed
     files), not one-by-one.  This is pretty easy using vc-dir now.
