I agree that Emacs+Magit among many others make easy to navigate through
the history. However, the commit messages are probably good enough
because some Coding Standards are imposed.
Because these standards, it is easy to navigate via grep for instance.
Git blame is useful once you know exactly what you are looking for.
Before that, when I try to figure out the logic behind such change, the
commit messages more or less fixed by the standards are very helpful,
IMHO.
Whatever the style (ChangeLog or anything else), it appears to me a good
thing to have strong standards.
Cheers,
simon
