So I agree that:
"net: wireless: broadcom: b43: main"
... seems unnecessarily long and verbose. However, IMHO:
"b43:"
... is too short and not forthcoming enough. Obviously this fine when something like `git log -- net/wireless`, as you already know what the patch pertains to, however when someone who is not in the know (like I would be) does `git log` and sees a "b43:" patch, they would have no idea which subsystem this patch is adapting. Even:
"wireless: b43:"
... would be worlds better.
A Git log which omitted all subsystem tags would be of limited use.

I see. Thanks for the clarification.
