He said 50 this time.. Our terminals are shrinking. 😱
72 is good for the subject line as a guideline. It shouldn't be enforced in any way. I prefer git clients that just give me a warning when I cross it.
How about the commit body? I've seen some people do manual word wrapping/line breaks there, and some git clients warn when I don't. Any reason to do manual word wrapping?
And markdown syntax in the commit message body, yay or nay?

I prefer 50 for the subject line specifically because that's when GitHub starts to truncate.
I have my line wrapping done automatically, though.
Do whatever works and doesnt get in the way in your team.
Thats my recommendation. ;)
