Is there a way to test for the "Initial commit" message in the
commit
template?

You can do "git commit --dry-run", which produces the template on
stdout.

Thanks for the help :)

That should be good enough for our purposes here, as it's the same
code
that produces the text that goes into the editor template. If you
really
wanted to test what the editor sees, you could do something like:

  GIT_EDITOR='cat >editor-input' git commit

but I don't think it's worth the trouble.

That's right. I thinks it's not worth the trouble too.
