	When using the '-v' option of "git commit" the diff added to the commit message temporarily for editing is stripped off after the user exited the editor by searching for "\ndiff --git " and truncating the commmit message there if it is found. But this approach has two problems: - when the commit message itself contains a line starting with "diff --git" it will be truncated there prematurely; and - when the "diff.submodule" setting is set to "log", the diff may start with "Submodule <hash1>..<hash2>", which will be left in the commit message while it shouldn't. Fix that by introducing a special scissor separator line starting with the comment character ('#' or the core.commentChar config if set) followed by two lines describing what it is for. The scissor line - which will not be translated - is used to reliably detect the start of the diff so it can be chopped off from the commit message, no matter what the user enters there. Turn a known test failure fixed by this change into a successful test; also add one for a diff starting with a submodule log and another one for proper handling of the comment char.

2008-11-12	status: show "-v" diff even for initial commit	Jeff King	1	-1/+1
	Since we can use the same "diff against empty tree" trick as we do for the non-initial case, it is trivial to make this work. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-11-12	commit: Fix stripping of patch in verbose mode.	Jeff King	1	-0/+73
	When the "-v" option is given, we put diff of what is to be committed into the commit template, and then strip it back out again after the user has edited it. We used to look for the diff by searching for the "diff --git a/" header. With diff.mnemonicprefix set in the configuration, however, this pattern does not match. The pattern is loosened to cover this case. Also, if the user puts their own diff in the message (e.g., as a sample output), then we will accidentally trigger the pattern, removing part of their output. We can avoid doing this stripping altogether if the user didn't use "-v" in the first place, so we know that any match we find will be a false positive. [jc: this fix was split out of a series originally meant for master.] Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
