Not sure if I mentioned this, but having first line of the commit be a

it is helpful to others too who browse our commits on websites.
Yeah. The recommended style is to have the first line be 50 chars or
less, which is a bit unfortunate - it can be a challenge to keep to
that limit for a meaningful or comprehensive subject.
Yes, I know mine are often cut-off. What I just did was to add a
50-character dashed line to the top of my editor window for commits so I
can see the limit each time --- that should help me.
vim does better than this. It color codes the characters so they change
color after 50 chars in the first line.
cheers
