> Reviewboard can be set up to automatically guess a patch's summary and description when {{GUESS_FIELDS}} is set. For commits that have no dedicated description, it uses the commit summary as description as well. This leads to commits with redundant commit messages, e.g.,
> {code}
> Frobnicated the foobarizer.
> Frobnicated the foobarizer.
> Review: https://reviews.apache.org/r/1234567890
> {code}
> When applying this commit with e.g., {{apply_reviews.py}} the redundant body is faithfully copied, but we should consider updating it to instead remove the redundant information automatically leading to e.g.,
> {code}
> Frobnicated the foobarizer.
> Review: https://reviews.apache.org/r/1234567890
> {code}
