I think all of this could be omitted when you've just started a new project and at the early stages. The reasoning is simple: you need small, atomic and well-commented commits to find regressions (mostly), admire the history and to make merges/rebases easier. This is not needed when there's not much code and you only write the most basic subsystems. Actually, I'd argue that making verbose and small commits that early is counterproductive as it distracts from the flow. It might be wrong for big teams and huge tasks but I'm sure it applies to pet and medium-sized projects. My own projects usually start with a big "Initial commit" and a set of huge commits after that, mostly described as "WIP" or so.
Of course, when the groundwork is set the commits should become smaller and more feature/bugfix oriented. It can also be used as a good rule of thumb telling you the project has probably become an MVP or an alpha and is ready to be shown to somebody.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
