The subject should be concise. Try to keep it at 65-70 characters or less. More detailed information can be written following the subject (separated from the subject by a blank line). Write in imperative tone: say "replace X with Y" rather than "X is replaced with Y". Mention the module or function you're touching. You might say something like this: Subject: install_branch_config: replace if-chain with string composition (But read below since that's not what you really want to do...) > This is a milliproject from git google summer of code page.

I suspect you meant "not quite easy" rather than "quite easy". This prose is almost pure email commentary. It doesn't really convey useful information to a person reading the patch months or years from now. Place commentary below the "---" line under your sign-off. Matthieu already pointed you at [1] which explains why this approach of composing the strings is not GNU gettext-friendly, so I'll review other aspects of the patch.

" by rebasing." : "."}; For portability, this project is still mostly restricted to C89, so these non-constant C99 initializer expressions are probably a no-go. > + struct strbuf message_template = STRBUF_INIT; > + size_t i = 0; > + > + for (i = 0; i < sizeof(message_template_parts)/sizeof(const > char *); ++i) { You can use the ARRAY_SIZE() macro instead of sizeof(...)/sizeof(...).
