[PATCH] commit: switch core.commentChar if it's found in existing commit

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If we need to use core.commentChar and it's already in the prepared
message, find another char among a small subset. This should stop
surprises because git strips some lines unexpectedly. Of course if
candicate characters happen to be all out, this change does not help.

 Something like this. Lightly tested.. I know there's a small bug..
