Yes it does, SungHyun Nam already sent a patch to me about that, that is 
quite interesting. I've merged it partly, and will make that commit 
plugin slightly better, so that people can:
 1/ trig it by hand
 2/ chose if the split is vertical or horizontal (I always have very big
    terms with a lot of vertical splits in vim, so I like the latter,
    other prefer the former)
 3/ chose via a let g:gitcommit_diff_mode or sth like that in the vimrc
    if that has to spawn automatically (0: none, 1: horiz split, 2: vert
    split)

and that time, I'll send that to the git contrib/vim maintainer so that I won't bother the list too much :)

a corrected version of the commit file wrt the cwd is on my site already, with a bit of SungHyun changes[1].
