I appreciate well formatted commits, but can we let this one go? This 
discussion is so far into the meta-bike-shedding (bike shedding about bike 
shedding commit messages) ... If a commit message is *that* bad a -1 (or just 
fixing it?) Might be worth it. However, if a commit isn't missing key info (bug 
id? Bp? Etc) and isn't one long incredibly unbroken sentence moving from topic 
to topic, there isn't a good reason to block the review.

It is not worth having a bot -1 bad commits or even having gerrit muck with 
them. Let's do the job of the reviewer and actually review code instead of 
going crazy with commit messages.

I have to disagree, as reviewers we have to make sure that guidelines
are followed, if we have an explicit guideline that states that
the limit length is 72 chars, I will -1 any patch that doesn't follow
the guideline, just as I would do with i18n guideline violations.

You could also tell the committer about the length so that s/he learns for the next time. Giving a -1 just for a few lines that are 80 chars long is over the top IMHO,
