I was just wondering, why does magit-mode set `truncate-lines' to t
and `line-move-visual' to nil?  The very first customization I made
when I installed Magit, before I ever looked at it's code, was adding
this to my .emacs:

(add-hook 'magit-mode-hook 'turn-on-visual-line-mode)

That sets line-move-visual to t and truncate-lines to nil, and I
haven't seen any ill effects.

If there's no good reason for it, I think it's better to not change
users' Emacs-wide settings.
