Git uses the imperative for a lot of its output, so this makes perfect sense to me.

Git uses the imperative for a lot of its output, so this makes perfect sense to me.
- dmlorenzetti 14y agoOne could equally well argue against using imperative, then: "Git uses imperative, so by avoiding it, you make clear which messages were human-written, and which were auto-generated."
- michaelmior 14y agoYou could make that argument, but I would lean towards consitency. (For example, git uses "Merge ..." for merge commits" as opposed to "Merged ...")
