The problem with automatic wrapping on the display is that there could be parts of commit message that *shouldn't* be wrapped, like code sample, or URL... and in plain text you don't have a way to separate flowed from non-flowed part. Also with long non-breakable identifiers you sometimes need to wrap by hand (or use linebreaking algorithm from TeX) or go bit over the limit to make it look nice. BTW. proper editor used to create commit message can wrap it for you ;-). -- Jakub Narębski -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
