The subject line should be < 80 characters (fit in a standard terminal), and it's best if commands like "git log --oneline" & friends can show it without truncating it, hence, ~50-60 characters is good. What about ls-tree: do not recurse when a directory is a prefix of another (I don't know the code of ls-tree, and I don't really understand either the bug or the fix by reading this. A good commit message help people to get convinced that your code is good) > From: Davi Reis If you use the same identifier for the commit and when you send the email, you'll get rid of this « From » in the body.
