How about prefixing your commit with a ticket number?
If a commit message has too much information, then the commit has too much changes
Not having to swap over to a ticketing system just to see the context of a change is really nice (Or to add context on why changes are done a certain way). One line that says what you changed, then any context such as why it was done that way, and important notes about that change works wonders. It's pretty much the exact model the Linux kernel uses, and it makes looking at changes great for anyone down the line.
Good idea
