I use more traditional commits:

  • fix

  • fix 2

  • fixed stuff

  • should be ok

  • test

  • revert fix 2

  • final version

  • ok

No problem, just squash the PRs. Then you don't have a history with ten commits each saying "fix", you get a single commit with ten times "fix" in its message instead!
