Or you can use pre-commit hook (which will be run with GIT_INDEX_FILE set to the index file used for the commit) to generate the diff in a separate file, and set EDITOR (or GIT_EDITOR) to a script around vim to open the given COMMIT_EDITMSG as well as that file you create. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
