One of the comment lines could be magic, in that if it is missing the feature is disabled. Something like: # *** Editable Commit List *** Or some such at the top of the list, where if it is missing after commit message editing, the post processing of the file list will be completely disabled. Another alternative would be to just enable the feature with an -A or some other commit command line option, so that those uninterested in such a feature don't have to even see it. It would be interesting to hear from Pasky on how this feature has worked out in practice for Cogito users and whether he thinks it would be a good addition to Git.
