Revision Comments
Where I work we have a standard header comment that is a revision block.
In this block we record dates, tracking numbers, person responsible for the revision and a comment.
We even have an entry for the creation of a file.
The other day I ran across this entry.
And some more...
The funny thing is that almost none of these are duplicated. The several that are: the mom ones, the Jalfrabby chicken ('cause it's so tasty) and Chuck Norris (because if we didn't, he'd come round-house kick us).
