A small Ruby gem called Git Lint enforces commit message shape: a 72-character subject, a capitalized, punctuated body that explains why, and removal of fluff. It runs against a branch or as a git hook (local or global), emits human-readable failures and counts (example shows three errors after inspecting commits), supports RuboCop-style toggles, regex rules, and CI integration so commit histories become readable, actionable documentation.
