Perhaps drop the unsubstantiated "many people always" and just say: Add commit.verbose configuration variable as a convenience for those who always prefer --verbose. or something. > Signed-off-by: Pranit Bauva <pranit.bauva@xxxxxxxxx> > --- As a convenience to reviewers, please use this area below the "---" line to provide links and explain what changed since the previous round rather than doing so in a separate email. > diff --git a/Documentation/git-commit.txt b/Documentation/git-commit.txt > @@ -290,7 +290,8 @@ configuration variable documented in linkgit:git-config[1]. > what changes the commit has. > Note that this diff output doesn't have its > lines prefixed with '#'.

The "permanently" bit sounds scary. A more concise way to state this might be: See the `commit.verbose` configuration variable in linkgit:git-config[1]. which doesn't bother spelling out what the intelligent reader should infer from the reference. > diff --git a/builtin/commit.c b/builtin/commit.c > @@ -1505,6 +1505,10 @@ static int git_commit_config(const char *k, const char *v, void *cb) > sign_commit = git_config_bool(k, v) ?

I would have expected to see these new tests re-use the existing machinery provided by this script (the check-for-diff "editor") rather than inventing an entirely new and unintuitive mechanism. Doing so would also reduce the size of each new test.
