IMO the body of the commit message should be self-contained. Many mail clients display the body text separately from the subject - the subject tends to be grouped with other metadata like to/from addresses. This makes reading both as a whole confusing and unintuitive. You can argue that this is a bug in git (and/or many mail clients). However I don't see that changing any time soon, so we should adapt our work process appropriately. Some other version control systems (e.g. CVS and SVN) don't have commit summary, so this can seem a strange concept when migrating from those systems. Paul
