I'd rather have in-depth commit messages then three word ones

• furyofantares 1y ago
  When I blind-commit claude code commit messages they are sometimes totally wrong. Not even hallucinations necessarily - by the time I'm committing the context may be large and confusing, or some context lost. I'd rather have the three word message than detailed but wrong messages. I think I agree with you anyway on average. Most of the time a claude-authored commit message is better than a garbage message. But it's still a red flag that the project may be filled with holes and not really ready for other people. It's just so easy to vibe your way to a project that works for you but is buggy and missing tons of features for anyone who strays from your use case.

    You're not wrong. I'd never encourage anyone to blind commit the messages But if they are correct they seem a lot more useful than 90% of commit messages. I found the biggest mistakes that I've seen other people do are like - they move a file, and the commit message acts like it's a brand new feature they added because the llm doesn't put it together it's just a moved file
