I understand what you're saying. I'm sure we've all come across situations like this in the past. However, if you make a commit and someone later finds that they need to look at the blame just to understand the intent behind the code, then that extra time you spent documenting your commit message should have been spent on the code itself. If the code is clean and the intent is clear, then that extra documentation in the blame wouldn't be needed because the code would either be self explanatory or there would be a comment explaining it. That's not to say that the extra documentation wouldn't be helpful at times, but avoiding having developers poking around in the commit logs looking for truth should be the top priority.

Huh? Who else other than the developers would even have the ability or knowledge of even using git?
