[![Example of Emoji in Commit Messages][1]][2]

Note the emoji in the extended description field. I'm fairly certain it's because emoji have the pattern `:word:`, and the compiler output specifies both the line number *and* character number. So,

```
helloworld.c:1:19
```

becomes helloworld.c:1:19
