Since Subject line becomes the git log description, it is best practice to keep it short.
On git commit man page:
Though not required, it’s a good idea to begin the commit message with
a single short (less than 50 character) line summarizing the change,
followed by a blank line and then a more thorough description.
If you need to provide more description put it in the message body.
