If you feel guilty just add an addendum:

EDIT: Use correct honorific



I bet you leave descriptive commit messages.


How is this related to my comment?


Your advice for specifying that he give an explanation for his edit generally goes above what most people do when they edit posts.

So I am assuming you are probably someone who applies that same sensitibility to writing descriptive commit messages, because similarly to people editing Internet posts/comments without specifying what they changed, many people leave very vague or meaningless commit messages.


Now I get it. I was not sure where you were going with this.
