Description

Not feeling too strongly about this, but it would be nice if the commits showed an indication what broke. I'd suggest using <formula>: revision for <dependency> like we normally do in these cases. (We normally try to synchronize these commits with version bumps to the changed dependency, but even if we aren't—like in this case—it's basically the same thing.)

I'll try and follow that convention in future. I kind of didn't here because I've no clue in hell where the original breakage happened and typically with revision for xyz we can go "We broke this formula on this date with this commit" and trace it back. Tracing these problems back is considerably less easy.

Kind of felt like the standard revision bump message credits us with too much knowledge of cause in this situation, but I'm not fussy enough to want to stick with something different in future.
