The amount of times the word "updates" appears in the commits makes me feel much better at my difficulty of choosing succinct and unique commit messages.

The amount of times the word "updates" appears in the commits makes me feel much better at my difficulty of choosing succinct and unique commit messages.

Note that those aren't "change commits", but merge commits aggregating large swathes of other changes. And it's not even all merge commits, it's just the merges from Linus' "top lieutenants".

But I sympathize. I often spend more time on commit messages than the actual changes...
