Please consider to use # not only in `merge` and `reset`, but in the rest of the commands as well, to unify this new syntax. I.e., right now it seems to be: pick abcd A commit message merge beaf # B commit message I suggest to turn it to: pick abcd # A commit message merge beaf # B commit message So that the # is finally universally the start of comment. While we are at this, I couldn't find any even semi-formal syntax description of the entire todo list. Is there one already? Are you going to provide one? -- Sergey
