I can only speak from my own experiences, but I have found commit messages extremely helpful, when they explain the "why" of the change. And as unfortunate as it is, many of us also have to work with unreadable codebases.

They are incredibly helpful when you are trying to find where a bug was introduced, and trying to figure out why some piece of code is the way it is.

One example is Finnish legislation: https://finlex.fi/fi/laki/ajantasa/2004/20040759#L2P4 Sadly only available in Finnish. The law applies both to employees and candidates.

EDIT: Looks like there is an English translation. See section 4 of: https://finlex.fi/en/laki/kaannokset/2004/en20040759_2019034...

No, they say they are not going to store a bitmap in a texture, which is not the same thing as embedding directly in the shader code.

You could compare that to storing some data in a separate file which needs to be read during runtime versus embedding the data directly in the source code.

That is a pretty wild take. Would you like to elaborate on that?
