From: Jeff King Date: Wed, 1 Oct 2008 22:31:25 +0000 (-0400) Subject: reformat informational commit message X-Git-Tag: v1.6.1-rc1~143^2~1 X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c85db254;p=git.git reformat informational commit message When committing, we print a message like: Created [DETACHED commit] () on The most useful bit of information there (besides the detached status, if it is present) is which branch you made the commit on. However, it is sometimes hard to see because the subject dominates the line. Instead, let's put the most useful information (detached status and commit branch) on the far left, with the subject (which is least likely to be interesting) on the far right. We'll use brackets to offset the branch name so the line is not mistaken for an error line of the form "program: some sort of error".
