From eff80a9fd990de3605063050dae32f969ef18ba8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2013 20:18:48 +0100 Subject: Allow custom "comment char" Some users do want to write a line that begin with a pound sign, #, in their commit log message. Many tracking system recognise a token of # form, for example. The support we offer these use cases is not very friendly to the end users. They have a choice between - Don't do it. Avoid such a line by rewrapping or indenting; and - Use --cleanup=whitespace but remove all the hint lines we add. Give them a way to set a custom comment char, e.g. $ git -c core.commentchar="%" commit so that they do not have to do either of the two workarounds. [jc: although I started the topic, all the tests and documentation updates, many of the call sites of the new strbuf_add_commented_*() functions, and the change to git-submodule.sh scripted Porcelain are from Ralf.] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano Signed-off-by: Ralf Thielow Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano --- builtin/fmt-merge-msg.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'builtin/fmt-merge-msg.c') diff --git a/builtin/fmt-merge-msg.c b/builtin/fmt-merge-msg.c index e2e27b2c40..d6d2e1b6c0 100644 --- a/builtin/fmt-merge-msg.c +++ b/builtin/fmt-merge-msg.c @@ -464,7 +464,7 @@ static void fmt_tag_signature(struct strbuf *tagbuf, strbuf_complete_line(tagbuf); if (sig->len) { strbuf_addch(tagbuf, '\n'); - strbuf_add_lines(tagbuf, "# ", sig->buf, sig->len); + strbuf_add_commented_lines(tagbuf, sig->buf, sig->len); } } -- cgit v1.2.3
