Sorry, but it is way too late to complain, generally after a change hits a release, and especially after it got buried under 8 new major releases. Unless a change was an unintended side-effect that we did not mean to make, in which case we would likely to fix it as a bug. And the change in question b2f5171e (status: remove the empty line after hints, 2019-06-04) quite deliberately targets at removing these extra lines [*], so no, I do not think it is reasonable to expect reverting that commit that is more than a year old. You may want to join the list discussion and stop whatever UI change you find undesirable before it materializes next time. [Reference] commit b2f5171ecc2feb4192acd80f5a6b05c06e099e97 Author: John Lin Date: Tue Jun 4 07:02:21 2019 -0700 status: remove the empty line after hints Before this patch, there is inconsistency between the status messages with hints and the ones without hints: there is an empty line between the title and the file list if hints are presented, but there isn't one if there are no hints. This patch remove the inconsistency by removing the empty lines even if hints are presented.
