Using --untracked-files=no cuts the time to display the editor from down to 12 seconds,
so that is perfectly fine. The patch can be ignored. However, would config option to
change the default --untracked-files value be entertained? Allowing:
[commit]
untrackedfiles=no
which defaults (as stated in the documentation for --untracked-files) to all?

Currently, using any editor to edit a commit message for 'git commit'
kicks of a 'git status' which is then included as comments to give
the commit author some context. However, in some situations, such as
having a working tree of many hundred thousand files or on an inefficient
filesystem, a 'git status' can take a long time to process before
displaying the commit for editing.
This patch provides an option to disable the status summary, documents it
and provides test cases for its operation.
There is prior art:

and resolution (in the thread, somewhat unclear).
