One certain developer got some simple task that would have involved the modification of one or two files.
After one week of work and a messed up project that doesn't work anymore, I fired up bash to do some svn log.
me@computer:~/Work/InstrumentControl/LIB_SLCETestEnvironment$ svn log -l 20

That's quite a lot of work! Let's have a look at one of the files:
me@computer:~/Work/InstrumentControl/LIB_SLCETestEnvironment$ svn diff -c 4816 GenericTestSubCSM/CMakeLists.txt | diffstat CMakeLists.txt | 6 ------ 1 file changed, 6 deletions(-) me@computer:~/Work/InstrumentControl/LIB_SLCETestEnvironment$ svn diff -c 4826 GenericTestSubCSM/CMakeLists.txt | diffstat CMakeLists.txt | 9 ++++++++- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) me@computer:~/Work/InstrumentControl/LIB_SLCETestEnvironment$ svn diff -c 4829 GenericTestSubCSM/CMakeLists.txt | diffstat CMakeLists.txt | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) me@computer:~/Work/InstrumentControl/LIB_SLCETestEnvironment$ svn diff -c 4835 GenericTestSubCSM/CMakeLists.txt | diffstat CMakeLists.txt | 5 ++--- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) me@computer:~/Work/InstrumentControl/LIB_SLCETestEnvironment$ svn diff -c 4837 GenericTestSubCSM/CMakeLists.txt | diffstat CMakeLists.txt | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) me@computer:~/Work/InstrumentControl/LIB_SLCETestEnvironment$
I didn't even expect that you need to modify this file. And why are there as many changes?
Ok, let's have a look at how the file has changed from the original version:
me@computer:~/Work/InstrumentControl/LIB_SLCETestEnvironment$ svn diff -r 4815 GenericTestSubCSM/CMakeLists.txt | diffstat CMakeLists.txt | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
Just a single line?

Wow, five check ins to add a single empty line. That's not bad. Unfortunately other commits by this developer include other changes than empty lines. If he only would just commit empty lines, than I would not really care about it.
