I don't like the new 'nothing to commit (use "git add ... message")'
message. I use git status very often to see if there is something to
commit, but now there is always this annoying "use git add ..." message.
I just want to see on what the branch is and if there is something to
commit.

If there is something to commit I get the list of untracked or modified
files with the use_add_msg and if I try to commit an empty tree as
initial commit I get the message from git-commit.sh.


bye
