For git commits, you should use the format: $subject $body Git treats the text up to the first newline as the subject of the commit and many tools are designed around that expectation. Refer to the "DISCUSSION" section of the git commit manpage: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-commit.html#_discussion The SubmittingPatches document also includes some helpful advice. This document is primarily designed for those submitting patches to the git project, but it's got a lot of good advice. http://git.kernel.org/?p=git/git.git;a=blob_plain;f=Documentation/SubmittingPatches -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it. -- George Bernard Shaw
