Sometimes I need to write "Implemented function X, but evaluates the result wrong possibly because of this. Fix this first, then continue".

A single commit touching whole codebase and only says "Bug fix" (or similar) is bad. I concur.

Also commit history should have enough granularity allowing bisection and partial rewind to understand problems and other side effects.
