The changeset *comment* is just that, a comment that should be 
human-readable. But many people forget that changesets can have any 
number of tags, so instead of adding machine-readable hash tags into the 
comment field, just invent new tags for the changeset, e.g.

type_of_edit={initial|geometry_fix|change_in_real_world|revert|...}

Bye
