The "first line" actually was what we used to do originally. git-native commits did not have problem with this behaviour, but it caused countless complaints from people looking at the history converted from other cultures. The behaviour was later fixed to avoid information loss when a commit from a different culture begins the log with a long sentence, choped at mid-sentence, to continue to the second line. Please check the list archive for the details (sorry, I am bit too lazy to repeat the argument myself). -- 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
