It doesn’t seem logical to me that someone working on solving an intellectual puzzle would do so without having a consistent internal narrative of what they are doing. If a developer can’t fit their change description on one line or don’t even know where to start describing the changes, chances are they could commit much more often. The way I see it, a commit message like ”WIP (test broken)” is unprofessionalism bordering on self-sabotage.
