The usual way to compose a log message of this project is to

- Give an observation on how the current system works in the present
tense (so no need to say "Currently X is Y", just "X is Y"), and
discuss what you perceive as a problem in it.
- Give an observation on how the current system works in the
present tense (so no need to say "Currently X is Y", or
"Previously X was Y" to describe the state before your change;
just "X is Y" is enough), and discuss what you perceive as a
problem in it.

- Propose a solution (optional---often, problem description
trivially leads to an obvious solution in reader's minds).
