I mean, I get it, but that's also not a thing of git, right? Just because GitHub does something doesn't mean every other hosting provider needs to. If your code review process is to comment upon specific commits, maybe it's the code review process that's wrong?

Git kinda has it? Have you seen git notes? https://git-scm.com/docs/git-notes

GitHub doesn't let you comment on the commit message either. The only one I've seen do this properly this is Gerrit. And of course regular old mailing list reviews.

There are so many blogs and posts about writing good commit messages, using Conventional Commits, etc, and the two most popular forges don't even let you comment in-line on the commit message during a review.
