My general preference for reading a commit message is to treat the

an implicit "Apply this patch to...". Your sentence reads awkwardly in
that light ("Apply this patch to command above provides..."). Better
might be:
Add a new query-memory-size-summary command which provides...
Yes, it repeats some of the subject line, but remember, not all mail
clients display the subject line immediately adjacent and in the same
font as the body, so making the reader refer back to the subject to get
context can be a distraction.

You may want to look at using scripts/git.orderfile, to rearrange your
patch so that interface changes (.json, .h) occur before implementation
(.c). For now, I'm just focusing on the interface:

Please also document when this field will be omitted.

You missed 2.10. This must be 2.11.

2.11
Also, consider including an example usage (there are efforts underway to
add automatic testing based on the examples, and a query-* command
should be easy to test in that manner).
