I'm saying that reverting a commit with a subject line

Revert "Reapply "Revert some subject""
right.
how about filing that under GIGO and extending the comment?
i mean, when you actually run into this situation, you should be
re-thinking your life choices rather than stressing about git producing
a somewhat suboptimal commit message template ...
Given that it is simple to handle this case and Junio is expecting a
re-roll of this topic[1] then I think it would be worth just adding
those three lines.
