If you think commit messages are useless, you're almost certainly using them wrong. The examples provided are fairly contrived. Yeah, so your local commits may not have a _ton_ of meaning, but you should write a meaningful PR description and (many times) if you do that part well, you can just re-use that for your commit message with minor tweaking. Combine the flexibility of the shell and git aliasing, and I just don't understand how they could possibly be complaining about this.
