My main goal with commit messages, code comments and every other *text*
you have in the code is to be as succinct and understandable as possible
for time considerations, clarity, etc.
If I see a 12-char sha1 followed by a title, to me that is a commit. No
need to say "commit" too. But as already said, if you prefer to have
"commit" there, I'll add it - no biggie.
Thx.
