[PATCH] commit-template: improve readability of commit template

The commit template adds the optional parts without a new line to distinguish them. This results in difficulty in interpreting it's content. Add new lines to separate the distinct parts of the template.

The warning about usage of 'explicit paths without any corresponding options' has outlived it's purpose of warning users about the usage '--only' as default rather than '--include'. Remove it.
