This is a natural extension to the existing "ticking time bomb" feature that can be enabled with echo '[help] autocorrect = 50' >>~/.gitconfig Some value like "autocorrect = ask" could mean to prompt, and the default behavior could be not to prompt (to avoid breaking muscle memory for people used to the usual "just succeed or fail, don't interact" behavior) but to mention that configuration in the output to make it easy to discover. With that tiny tweak, it sounds good to me. I stole this idea from http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/197151/focus=197249 and the surrounding thread, which also has rough hints toward an implementation.
