Have you considered whether you really need to use git? You could just take regular snapshots if you are concerned about needing to revert/undo. Or use a tool like git wip to automatically make commits every time you save, if you really like the git UI.

I mean, git is useful even without "human-readable" commit messages.... 99% of my commit messages are complete garbage ("fixes" "farming, music and shit" "update" ".", etc.)

but in practice it's not a huge problem, IDE shows you the commit history of a specific file so bisecting changes is easy, there's only a few entries with the roughly correct date modifying the file you're looking for :D

"low quality code/commit messages" hasn't really slowed me down so far and probably won't in the future either
