  • My commits tend to be pretty verbose. Here’s an example log from one of my projects.

    I follow the standard imperative style for the commit title, and then I use the body to summarize any important internal changes, reflect on the overall project status (for example, what milestones this commit crosses or what other work it might enable or require), and state what I’m going to work on next. I’m sure some people find it too wordy, but I like having the commit history show lots of details about the overall status.

    Edit: I always have a descriptive summary, i.e., never one word commits or similar.
