That would be a lot of clutter.
When you're on a codebase where people bother writing commit messages, reaching for blame/annotate output becomes second nature and reveals so much about your code. It's just as good if not better than comments, because every line in your source now has a comment.
- tln 8y agoIn fact, every line of your source has several comments! Which may or may not really apply! BOTH are needed IMHO, comments must be able to communicate knowledge a reader of the code-as-a-whole needs to know, and commit messages must be able to communicate knowledge a reviewer of the change needs to know.
