Git commit messages quality is very important when you investigate your history.
Often it would be useful to be able to attach comments to commits
messages for instance to add forgotten information.
Those comments should be shown when `git show`ing a commit.
Could be implemented as commits that use a new field to link to the
commit they should be shown with, along with some index to make it
performant.
git-notes(1)
... together with "git log --notes[=<ref>]".
I think that’s covered well enough by the man page. ;)
