Oh, and just to give an idea of how common incorrect commit messages 
are, my hook says that out of the last 5000 commits, 866 have a problem, 
excluding the Eglot commits.

If I also ignore lines starting with "*" that have no "/" in them (these 
are almost always due to an unnecessary leading "*" on the first line of 
the commit), we get down to 196 bad commit messages, or 3.9% of commits.
