Ah okay, I don't recall having myself seen anything written down other
than 50/68, though I know plenty of projects don't care about it at all.

I'm thinking two defcustoms, then:

    vc-git-summary-target-length defaults to nil,
         I'll make emacs.git's .dir-locals.el set it to 50

    vc-git-summary-max-length defaults to 68.

(The name of the latter is based on `git-commit-summary-max-length' from
git-commit.el on my system, which I believe is pulled in by Magit.)
