From: GaveUp Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2017 17:50:17 GMT Subject: commit-msg hook with verbose commit flag Message-ID: <20170921175017.GR1557@sunnydale2.internal.pylea.com> When using the --verbose flag on git-commit with a commit-msg hook the contents of the diff are passed to the commit-msg hook. I would have expected the diff to have been removed since it's below the scissor line. Since the scissor line is removed and not visible to commit-msg there doesn't seem to be a great way to ignore the diff contents either.
