I like to follow conventional commit style, and some repos I work on have CI checks for it. It's been fixed now, but for a long time the validator we were using would reject commits that included long urls in the body (for exceeding the width limit).

It was enraging - I'm trying to provide references to explain the motivation of my changes, all my prose is nicely formated, but the bulleted list of references I've provided is rejecting my commit.

I generally think it's in the category of a social problem not a technical problem - communicate the expectations but don't dogmatically enforce them
