Hey, Sorry for revamping an old thread but I kept wondering why vim highlighted only first 50 characters of my subject lines, so I checked git-commit manpage. It suggests less than 50 characters for the first line, is there any particular reason why we shouldn't follow git guidelines? > - When committing code on behalf of others use the --author option, e.g. > git commit -a --author "Joe Coder <j...@coder.org>" and --signoff. A mention for git-format-patch + git-am workflow could be worth here.
