Maybe sometimes the mental effort of writing a commit message just isn't worth it.

At work, I try to be a good boy and write proper commit messages, always.

On personal projects, I often just use "." or something equally meaningless. Sometimes I can't be bothered explaining myself, and on a personal project nobody is going to be burned by it but me.

Well... except in this case they referenced the repo in a paper, so of course folks are going to have a look, fork it, play with it, etc.
