A previous version of this patch can be found at
http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/287540 .
The changes in the patch are :-
- Fix typo "git config" to "git commit"
- Use a better commit message
- Drop a paragraph in commit message so as to not misguide readers
- Consider additional tests as suggested by Eric Sunshine
- Add an option "override-verbose" to git commit to override the
"always true" setting if set in the configuration file
It took me quite some time to send this patch. I was trying to write
tests for this and send the patch together but I could not find the
test examples that could be used from the existing code base. If
someone has an idea in mind then I could probably write the tests.
Though I have tested this personally for all the cases but I think it
would be preferable to automate the job.
