Thanks.  I am afraid I have to ask you to either refute my
misunderstanding or a second round.

Can't cleanup_mode be CLEANUP_ALL at this point, and if so
shouldn't this insn be given as well?

In addition, if:

 - we are talking with editor, and
 - the mode is verbatim, and
 - we added any "#" line ourselves (e.g. in_merge adds the insn
   shown above, or perhaps we added "git status" output),

then perhaps we would want to say that "#" lines need to be
stripped by the user; otherwise it will be left in the commit.

We at this point know that some stripping would happen.  The
template needs to be cleaned the same way as the commit message
was stripped.  Is checking no_edit the right thing to do?  What
if cleanup_mode was CLEANUP_ALL and there is no editing going
on?

When writing such a long ? : expression, laying it out like:

	condition
        ? if-true
        : if-false

would be easier to read.  You tilt your head sideways 90
degrees, just like you read a smiley ;-), and you will see the
parse tree.

But I suspect, assuming that the two issues around CLEANUP_DEFAULT vs
CLEANUP_ALL I mentioned above are indeed bugs, it may be cleaner
to:

  - parse the options; you get one of NONE/DEFAULT/SPACE/ALL

  - convert DEFAULT to SPACE or ALL if editor is in effect.

  - do not worry about no_editor or DEFAULT in the rest of the
    code when calling stripspace().  The only values you will
    see are NONE, SPACE or ALL.

These tests check too many things at once, and it would be very
hard to diagnose when breakage does happen.  Please split them
perhaps into three separate tests like this:

> +	echo >>negative &&
> +	{ echo;echo "# text";echo; } >expect &&

> +	diff -u expect actual &&

This is one test --- making sure the commit body match the
unedited template verbatim, except the status part to be shown
in the editor.  But we are not using editor in this test and I
thought the point of this --cleanup=verbatim exercise was that
the "status" part is not even have to be added to the commit log
message when editor is not in effect...  Isn't the "head -n 3"
just sweeping a bug under the rug?

> +	echo >>negative &&
> +	git commit --cleanup=verbatim -F expect -a &&
> +	git cat-file -p HEAD |sed -e "1,/^\$/d">actual &&
> +	diff -u expect actual &&

And this is another test.

> +	echo >>negative &&
> +	git commit --cleanup=verbatim -m "$(cat expect)" -a &&
> +	git cat-file -p HEAD |sed -e "1,/^\$/d">actual &&
> +	diff -u expect actual

And this is yet another.

Also, the tests do not check "-F file -e", "-m msg -e" etc.  We
would want to make sure the right insn are shown to the user in
the editor, wouldn't we?
