Éric Araujo <merwok at netwok.org> added the comment:

Victor, you just did what a recent discussion on python-dev strongly recommended not to do: you used ambiguous present tense in your commit message.  “test_logging writes debug messages to stderr, not stdout” does not say whether it is the buggy behavior (unambiguous example for that: “test_logging used to write debug messages to stderr, not stdout”) or the new, fixed behavior (“test_logging now writes debug messages to stderr, not stdout”).  You should use unambiguous phrasing like “make X do Y”, “fix Y with Z”, “don’t W when Z”.
