OK, I have lived with it for a little while, and I am still

My complaints are:
1. It wastes more horizontal screen real estate, making it more
likely
that the line will wrap.
2. In almost all of my projects (including git), I use the subject
line convention of "subsystem: one line summary". So you end up
with the visually confusing:
Created commit abcd1234 on master: subsystem: one line summary
which is even worse on a topic branch which is meaningful to the
project:
Created commit abcd1234 on widget: subwidget: one line summary
which has literally left me scratching my head wondering why I put
"widget" into the commit message.
How about something like
Created commit abcd1234 on widget -- "subwidget: one line summary"
?
Maybe it is better to simply break the line, which solves both
problems.
Something like:
I don't like a multi-line approach.. I tried it myself, and the second
line
makes the first line easier to overlook
