While I thought the original was fine, if we are going to strive for
perfection, there are some things that could be changed.  First there
should be a space in the subject line after the :

Second the commit log could be more concise as:

Allow defining COCCI as a directory that contains .cocci files.

In general, at least in simple cases, it is not necessary to mention the
name of the file you are modifying in the comit log, because one can see
that just below from looking at the diffstat and the patch.
