It's one of my favourite features.

It allows me to commit rapidly while I'm working without losing my train of thought, making for embarrassingly more utile commits.

I'm not sure how summarizing things myself (and presumably, remembering) would help me in the future. And besides, it's what the commit message is for.

Good to know! Thanks for sharing your workflow. To answer your question, I just think when you're scrolling through git log, seeing a message in your own words has a much better chance of bringing back all that went behind that commit. But I agree that's very subjective.
