Now, I found another issue: I still have this "interpret-trailers" in my hooks/commit-msg, and it behaves badly when I use "git commit -v". With -v, I get a diff in COMMIT_EDITMSG, and interpret-trailers tries to insert my Sign-off within the diff, like this: # Do not touch the line above. # Everything below will be removed. diff --git a/git-multimail/README b/git-multimail/README index f41906b..93d4751 100644 Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@xxxxxxx> --- a/git-multimail/README +++ b/git-multimail/README Either commit-msg should be called after stripping the diff from COMMIT_MSG, or interpret-trailers should learn to stop reading when the patch starts. I think the first option is better, since it means that any commit-msg hook does not have to deal with the patch stuff (my guess is that there are many broken commit-msg hooks out there, but people didn't notice because they don't use "commit -v").
