This looks very good. Thanks for sharing. I can only imagine how much discipline it takes to write these kinds of commits manually.

Is it discipline?

When you think of the patch as an unit of idea and the commit as the means to convey that idea, it takes the same amount of effort to write an email message.

BTW you do not have to write those for every single commit. You can always rebase interactively and create a final set of commits for sharing. No one cares about what’s in your local copy of the repo.
