Comment(by richard):

 I've just gone through the patch myself, and would echo Olly's comments.
 Given that the algorithm in brass is new (and a little bit complex) it
 would also be reassuring to have a test for the situation where
 max_changesets is increased again.  ie:

  - set max to 2
  - commit 3 changes
  - check that only the last 2 changesets exist
  - set max to 3
  - commit another 2 changesets
  - check that only the last 3 changesets exist

 This is looking good, though.
