It is also conventional in most cases to prefix the first line with "area: " where the area is a filename or identifier for the general area of the code being modified, e.g. * doc: clarify distinction between sign-off and pgp-signing * githooks.txt: improve the intro section If in doubt which identifier to use, run `git log --no-merges` on the files you are modifying to see the current conventions. > and clarify tutorial prerequisites Do not do this. What you have on the e-mail "Subject:" line is the first paragraph (whose definition is block of text delineated by blank lines) of the commit log message, and the first paratraph in the body of a patch e-mail is the second paragraph. You do not start your second paragraph at half-sentence, as if it were a continuation of an incomplete previous sentence.
