might be useful if there’s an established commit message formatting. But for a majority of Fortune 500 to small businesses that I have worked for this is not the case. Usually you see shit like this:
On main:
2020-01-01: "Changes"
2020-01-05: "Changes"
2020-01-06: "merge <ref to jira/gh issue>"
2020-01-07: "revert <ref to unrelated jira/gh issue from 2 yrs ago>"
Then there’s the people that include merge commits despite agreeing on rebasing.
Occasionally see sprinkles of decent, consistently formatted commit messages.
I think this is only useful on medium to large _open source_ projects. Clearly established CONTRIBUTING.md/README.md and commit formatting/merging guide.
