This is absolutely unreadable gunk. It's enough to refer to a commit sha
instead of these horrible unformatted html style references. And please
stop top posting and trim your replies.

I provided commit sha in addition to html references. Your email client might not have liked those reference (unfortunately). For some people, it will help easier to see code and I will not get into details/path.
In any cases, I'll stop providing those references in the futures. Thanks for the feedback.
