Numbers in commit messages don't really make any sense. I don't understand what value they might have. The narrative of your codebase is hard to follow when large number of your commits don't have any message explaining what you've done.

I like to commit (quite) frequently when working on something, but later I feel that work-in-progress commits are just hindrance. When looking at project history after two year, I'll be glad if there is a single, larger commit "implemented feature x". Rebase is your friend.
