Agreed. My motivation for making this was the complete lack of detail in my peers' commit messages. They had no problem writing a semi-descriptive commit title, but glossed over numerous (yet small) changes entirely.
Ironically, this project I would not use myself! Mostly because I am in the practice of the Git workflow.
My goal was to make something which was easy to use, and gets someone in the habit of thinking about/listing all changes in a commit.
I certainly hope I'm not encouraging the bad behavior I'm trying to prevent!
Comments
well, it seems not very useful if you are doing a discrete piece of work because you have one short comment to make, not a list...
maybe encourage is the wrong word, but it seems like a useless tool if you are doing things in (what i perceive to be) the right way.

i think encourage was the wrong word.
i can still see it being useful, like i said. well done for making something and sharing it like this.
