I guess the ideal width is subjective, I usually wrap at 72 chars because then you've got 4 blanks on either side when viewed with "git log", which I find neater than maxing out the horizontal width. In some cases I deliberately wrap at less than 72 chars or allow 73 chars if it avoids vastly unequal widths in a paragraph. Often when I later doublecheck what you've committed, I find that you've rewrapped everything to 75 chars and the result doesn't look as neat as I wanted it to be. Not a big deal, but thought I'd mention it now that you're codifying this "rule" somewhat more formally. Lukas
