Perfect! It ensures that a dev such as myself who isn't closely following
the related discussion threads has a hope of understanding why the change
was made.

One thing to add here is to make sure you click on the link to get the
Permalink if you try to get a link to mail-archives.apache.org if you
don't you'll end up just linking to the archive and not a specific
mail. If you've got a Message-ID on the end of your URL then you're
linking to a specific message properly.

BTW, you can check whether the web site has updated by retrieving
http://subversion.apache.org/.revision

Please provide the Message-ID, or a link to mail-archives.apache.org
(haxx.se is operated by a third party, so we should try not to rely on
its indefinite existence).

You should remove the "Patch by" line, and add an "Approved by" line
when you commit.

How about:
[[[
Update web server configuration file and change all the file
permissions to remove the executable bit.
"AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .html" is provided by httpd.conf
and this makes the "XBitHack On" setting unnecessary. Similarly,
the file permissions of the *.html files that are set to 'executable'
are not necessary.
See: http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2013-02/0274.shtml for the discussion.
* site/publish/.htaccess():
remove "XBitHack On".
* site/*
remove svn:executable property from all files.

IMO, your log message should explain the reason for and value of such a
sweeping change. The diff already tells us what you've done -- developers
coming a few years after us will want to know *why* it was done.
