[larusso]

I wanted to add that I think writing a longer commit message with a description why a change is needed before opening a change request can also help the author to check one more time if the solution or reasoning is sound. Like a rubber ducky. It really helps to write down the message in a way to explain some other person why the change needs to be made and maybe with some more context why the specific solution was choosen. More often than not this one realized that the solution at hand might not be the best or one suddenly thinks about an easier/simpler solution. Because of this I tend to think about this message early. And it happened that I dropped some requests because I thought about an alternative route because I realized the change would bring to much complication etc. Because if it is hard to explain why a change is needed than something is slightly wrong. That is obviously different case by case and one shouldn't form a dogma around it.
