BTW, this does not quite work as expected if you did something like this: echo -n 'incomplete line' | git commit -a -s -F - because we would want to append the Signed-off-by: line. I am almost tempted to say "then do not do it", but it might make sense to do this as well. -- >8 -- [PATCH] stripspace: make sure not to leave an incomplete line. When dealing with a commit log message for human consumption, it never makes sense to keep a log that ends with an incomplete line, so make it a part of the clean-up process done with git-stripspace.
