Whether they make it to trunk or not doesn't really change the fact that a one-word message is poor. If it's only on your local machine, do what you like. The hook only complains when such a commit is published on gcc.gnu.org.
I would disagree here. I used 'WIP' as my commit message for a branch that is an experimental and potentially fixes a PR. GCC git is a central point for my setup, I need to push the branch in order to pull it from a different machine and test it there. Moreover, as Jason said, one can have multiple commits that will be squashed anyway before a patch submission. Martin
