As a kernel dev, I equally review subject line of a patch as I review the commit message and the patch itself. However, web based review systems.. bitbucket GitHub, Gerrit... They all lack a decent scheme to do inline reviews of subject line and commit message. Anyone know of a better tool (other than mailing list)?

@nm Why not mailing lists? The question is a bit like asking for a good tool for driving in nails other than a hammer.

@attilakinaliHeh@mansrIt all started with me doing a git log of a non-linux related project and wondering what was the real root of many crap I saw. They do bitbucket. It's pretty decent, except for this..The Linux guys use mailing list and it works just fine.

@nm @attilakinali The root cause is that nobody involved cares about quality commit messages, as is the norm.

@mansrAt least they don't understand how valuable it can be. When I do spend a few mins explaining, they get it, this is where the tools available to them gets in the way.@attilakinali
