The git phrasebook has the format:

http://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/GitPhraseBook

Examples of decent commit messages from today[1]:

"hal_0.5.11.bb : add new version from OM branch"

"xmms: add sed magic to fix builds with gettext > 0.14.0"

"hal 0.5.11: move to nonworking:
* autoreconf fails
* after fixing that it doesn't build"

regards,

Koen

[1] That sentence no verb!
