Multiple comments per commit
We are using a web hosted repository that is very slow. It would be good if we could make comments for multiple items being committed. i.e. proc 1 with comment 1, proc 2 with comment 2 etc.

I also agree with this - but only because committing multiple items is so slow!
I quite often have to commit multiple items, with a different comment for each one (e.g. a Request ID on a problem tracking system), but as it stands, you have to commit the items one at a time, which makes it re-retrieve all the changes again which takes FOREVER.

@David Atkinson;
That is what I want. I just recently had to perform five separate commits, rather than one commit with five seperate comments. I don't want to commit after every change, because I need to verify all of the changes work together before commiting them. In this example, I had to create a new object, add'/remove fields to a couple of tables, update logic in a udf and update a join in a view. I couldn't re-use the comments so I had to comment/commit/check for differences five times. What should have taken 90 seconds took 7-8 minutes. -
Can I paraphrase what I think you're asking for? You have multiple changes, that you want to commit individually with their own comments, but because the commit process is slow on your hosted repository, you want a way of associated different comments on individual items in your commit list and then to commit them all in one go (albeit as individual changesets)?
